Jacob was born in Midland and raised in Perkinsfield, with strong ties to Penetanguishene through education and sports. He attended Laurentian University in Sudbury, maintaining his bilingual background, and earned a Bachelor of Business Administration with a specialization in finance, graduating with honours. Throughout his post-secondary education, Jacob worked for Tiny Township, which allowed him to stay connected with and serve his local community.
Jacob then went on to study law at the University of Windsor, looking to bridge his finance background with the legal world. After his second year of law school, he joined HGR Graham Partners as a summer student and has since returned to the firm to complete his articles. While Jacob’s primary focus is on real estate and estate planning, he remains open to opportunities to explore different branches of law throughout his articling term.
Outside of work, Jacob enjoys working on his golf game, fishing on Georgian Bay year-round, and spending time with friends and family. After being across Ontario, Jacob is excited to reconnect with his roots and make a meaningful impact in the community.
