I'm Jacob Abernathy.
I'm a graduate from the VCU Brandcenter. I just spent the last 2 years at a program where I worked day and night learning how to create the future of the industry. I'm a Creative Technologist. I aim to reconcile the lack of innovative thinking in this industry, stand on the shoulders of the great work that's been done in the past, and to make some cool shit.

I just started working at Fallon in Minneapolis, MN as a "Creative Technologist".

Check out my WORK and my personal section to learn a little more about me.
