About Jake Fishbain

Dedicated solutioner, teacher, and candy-lover, I am a motivated \'edu-coder\' striving to help others through knowledge and compassion. I approach a challenge with an open mind, breaking down the issue into its individual parts and tackling each one systematically. I pride myself in being able to connect the dots, implement a plan, and share my learnings. I strive to create solutions that directly meet and align with business objectives and ensure shared milestones and goals are achieved and exceeded. Having taught and led teams across various settings, I believe communication holds together the framework of any successful partnership. The same is true in architecting a solution to implement, regardless of the industry, vertical, or otherwise. I am a capable problem solver and leader with a creative touch. Merging my love for learning, teaching and technology, the possibilities are endless!
