About Jack Hawkins

Too good for the office coffee.

Jack spends his days building user interfaces while wearing noise canceling headphones which make him easy to sneak up on. There’s a big ole’ novel on his desk but he never takes it home, so it’s probably just for show. He likes to brag about how his children never cry.

Q&A

Q&A

  • Who is your favorite real-life genius? Why?

    Kendrick Lamar. For years he's been producing some of the most cleverly written words to ever grace sound waves. In 2024, he set his sights on preserving hip hop by exposing others producing inauthentic works just for profit and clout. Kendrick Lamar won the most publicized rap beef in history and then went on to design the most viewed and highest rated SuperBowl halftime show in history. His music has been incredibly influential, experimental, and authentic.

  • When you’re not working, you’re most likely…

    When I'm not working, I'm most likely drinking nice espresso on the way to some outdoorsy adventure with my wife and two little kids. I love nice coffee and a good hike off the beaten path.

  • Tell us about a place you visited and something you loved about it.

    I stayed at the oldest inn in England, the Porch House. I loved the timeless vibe of everything and how it was all built around spending time in community with the people around you. Also, the nearby St. Edwards church has a real-life Lord of the Rings door that inspired Tolkien.
