About Me

Hi -- I'm Ron Jacobson (@rjjacobson).

I was born on Long Island, had a brief Queens Boulevard stint followed by 17 years in Tenafly, NJ. I studied econ and comp-sci at McGill (I'm American) followed by 3 months of backpacking South America.

After college, I had worked at the FRBNY as a software developer followed by 3 mostly great years at AppNexus. Currently, I'm CEO at Rockerbox which I founded in 2013.

I'm a lifelong fan of the Spurs, Seinfeld, alliteration and Israeli cottage cheese.
