Jacob graduated from the University of Texas at Tyler with a Masters in Kinesiology in 2012. Following that time, he worked primarily in the sports performance and rehabilitation field until he found his way to the field of paralysis recovery in late 2013, Jacob moved to Houston at the inception of Project Walk Houston to bring his experience and passion to the Houston community. Now, Jacob fills the role as the proud co-owner of Project Walk Houston -- committed to refine the activity-based recovery programs that shape Project Walk Houston, and to improve the lives of as many individuals that suffer from paralysis.
