Jacob Briggs

Jacob is a returned citizen who worked as a software engineer prior to joining The Last Mile. He learned how to code while attending The Last Mile program in Indiana. He is a driven philomath, is excited about teaching, and even got a Department of Labor certification in Education and training. He has a deep interest in blockchain technology – he has been learning many of the languages involved in web3 development and started his own web3 and blockchain services company.

Building on his knowledge of education and his experience as a software engineer, Jacob sought a position at TLM because he wanted to be a part of the organization and process that has changed his life so drastically. He hopes to help others who are striving to make these same changes and considers his job very rewarding.
