About
I’m Jacob
I’m a data analytics leader who’s spent years turning messy data into things people actually use — automated pipelines, executive dashboards, self-service tools. I’ve done this at Kepler, Condé Nast, and Deloitte, leading teams and building systems that have saved hundreds of thousands of hours and dollars.
I work mostly in Python, SQL, and Tableau, and lately I’ve been building web apps. I like making things that are useful, fast, and fun.

Projects
Spotify Analytics

Spotify Playlist Archiver
Automatic weekly archiver of playlists that would otherwise disappear. Includes Discover Weekly, Release Radar, and Your Top Songs at different granularities. Uses PyAutoGUI automation for playlists unavailable via API, and the Spotify API for top tracks with rate-limit handling (Python, Spotipy).
Personal Finance App
Enables precise daily budgeting, investment planning, and optimization, using Python and Apps Script.

Full-stack e-commerce site with Stripe payment processing, Express.js backend (Node.js, Stripe API, HTML/CSS/JS).

System Administration
Self-hosted web apps and network services on a Linux server (Docker, Docker Compose) including Plex media automation stack, Portainer, and Plausible Analytics (PostgreSQL, ClickHouse).
