Jacob Smith is originally from rural Southern Nevada but lived in Reno for seven years. While in Reno, he earned an MBA and a degree in mechanical engineering, and particularly enjoyed his two years as a Nevada cheerleader and bartending in midtown.
He has since moved to Southern Nevada and received a JD from the Boyd School of Law. Jacob has worked for firms that engage in work involving social justice, open-source software, intellectual property, and data privacy. He is also a founding member of the Las Vegas chapter of the National Lawyers Guild and is currently on the steering committee.
When he can, Jacob enjoys training duo acrobatics, fire breathing, and fire spinning. He also enjoys woodworking and any other activity that allows him to express his creative side. But if asked, Jacob would admit that his favorite after-work activity is spending time with his fiancé and two cats, Sazerac and Paloma.
