Jacob is the country head for Acquia India where he manages all alliances, business development and services in the region. He is an experienced trainer, project manager, developer and scrum-master with 12 years of experience building great web experiences, six with Drupal. At Acquia, he has been an integral part of the Acquia Search and Drupal Gardens products.
Outside of work he tries to stay fit, drink beer (to counteract the exercise), go bowling, dance and play a bit of guitar and basketball. But mostly, he just plays with his three year old daughter Zoya (a.k.a the girl with the big blue eyes).
