About Jake Russell
I’m a founder, producer, and systems-builder working at the intersection of storytelling and technology.Through Goodbrother, I’ve led commercial productions for agencies and brands, creating commercials, branded films, and social content with precision and craft. With Varis, I’m helping redefine how creative services are delivered — using a SaaS platform built around Clips and Shows to make content production scalable, transparent, and flexible.I also created Junior, a modular platform designed to unify life apps into one connected system — turning fragmented data into insights across the bigger picture. Alongside these, I continue to explore new ways systems, automation, and AI can support creative workflows.At the core of everything I build is the same drive: simplify complexity, push creative execution further, and find smarter ways to connect people with stories and tools that matter.
