Hi, I'm Jacob :)

Sooo, here’s what u need to know:

 

I’m an actor and theatre artist from Fairhope, Alabama, and New Orleans, Louisiana. My parents owned an antique store down south, and I’ve been bouncing around the Gulf Coast since I can remember. 

 

I just graduated from Boston University!! I studied acting in BU’s College of Fine Arts, concentrating in film/TV studies and movement direction. I studied classical performance at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in London where I was certified with distinction in broadsword combat from the BASSC; I also served as the music director and movement captain of multiple productions. 

 

Enough about work. 

 

I'm a fourth-generation toy-maker and avid antiquer. I grew up fencing and learning to train dogs (seldom at the same time). I'm a proud tabletop game enthusiast, love working with my hands, and spend an inordinate amount of time at Martha's Bakery.

 

If you need music recs or a shoulder to climb on,

I know a guy.

 

Stay in touch,

JA <3
