Dr. Jacob is the founding psychologist of an onsite corporate wellness clinic at a Fortune 500 company, where he established a behavioral wellness program for corporate employees.

Dr. Jacob strives to live an authentic life which is consistent with his humanistic professional values. And, frankly, getting stoked is his biggest motivational driver. In his free time, Dr. Jacob is recharged and invigorated by being in community, reading exhaustively on topics ranging from mid-century architecture, to general aviation, to art and design, traveling with his young son, wife, and loyal rescue dog Ryder, rock climbing, surfing, riding mountain bikes on pump tracks and dirt jumps, and doing saunas and cold plunges.
