From early in life, Jake's imagination has been depicted in drawings of fantastic landscapes and storied fiction of characters from other worlds. Software creation has been a continuation and addition to those earlier creative efforts. That's what makes software creation so compelling to him -- it is a most malleable medium, allowing us to create what we can imagine. It has been Jake's great privilege to work with talented teams to create software for great and worthy causes. At the speed of the technology industry, there has been so much to learn and mentor others in. It is now such a great fit and with great pleasure that he is able to share some of his enthusiasm and experience on the Pluralsight platform.
