Hi, I'm Jordan. Nice to meet you!

I am a Software Engineer, Artist Account Manager at Twitch, and podcast host with a background in the music industry. At my core, I am an organized thinker that loves problem solving.

While in music, I developed both of these skills through finding creative and efficient ways to bring artists to market and, at Twitch, I utilize these skills to help our partners find success on the service. As an engineer, I apply them through innovative and productive ways to develop applications. As a podcast host, I have 80+ episodes and two years of experience interviewing the music industry’s most innovative minds and building a community of engaged listeners.

I am devoted to contributing to work that I am proud of and that benefits society, and look forward to life's challenges or error messages as an opportunity for growth.
