Hi, I'm Jacob.
I'm a Software Engineer, Web Developer, and recovering artist. I've been building stuff on the web for a decade, and still love crafting exceptional user experiences. Currently, I'm a Software Engineer at Stylitics. I'm also a maintainer of a number of open source projects, including the Counterscale analytics project.
