The person behind Hi, I’m Jacob Organizing

Nice to meet you!

I moved to Eagle Rock, LA in 2025 from Prospect Lefferts Gardens, Brooklyn where I lived for almost five years. I grew up in Maine and have also lived in Portland, Oregon and Washington, DC. I studied political science and gender studies at The George Washington University in the Foggy Bottom neighborhood of DC. I didn’t study abroad but I speak some French, Spanish, and tiny bit of Italian.

I work at Adobe helping Enterprise customers like Condé Nast, TD Bank, and Hasbro implement Frame.io. Before that, I worked in the fields of sustainability and civic engagement/public service.

I love to read, especially character-driven literary fiction and science fiction. I can be found in a yoga class at least three times a week. I drive an EV (2025 Nissan Leaf) and you might call me an EVangelist ;0

I have an amazing cat named Peppa. She is a three year old tuxedo cat from the streets of New Jersey. Like me, she is curious, kind, and hilarious. She is named after Black Peppa, not Peppa Pig (all love no hate to Peppa Pig).

Fun fact - I worked for the gay marriage campaign in Portland, Oregon in 2013 and 2014 during a gap year between high school and college. I was an extraordinary door-to-door fundraiser and a perfectly average petition signature gatherer. During one of my evening shifts, I was attacked by an unidentified bird who may have mistaken me as prey.
