The Team, Near and Far
Also affectionately referred to as “The Face of the Place,” Paul is the driving creative force at Jacober Creative. A California boy at heart, he spent his formative years studying journalism and publication design at Pepperdine University in Malibu, California. Later, he would go on to hone his design skills in New York’s early 90s publishing scene, including at Vibe Magazine, Museums New York magazine and a now defunct postcard design company (long live print!). After realizing he was a little more SoBe than LES (Lower East Side for you non-New Yorkers), Paul moved to Miami where he started building up a strong roster of clients in the arts, non-profit and later real estate and municipality industries… the foundation of the current iteration of Jacober Creative. From doodles to designs, from branding to demanding, the company has won numerous awards (working on the EGOT).
When Paul isn’t weighing the benefits of circles vs. triangles (or serving on the board of Miami’s leading arts incubator, Locust Projects), he’s discovering new destinations, preferably those with a distinct music scene and a strong architectural presence. Should he get lost, you’ll find him bopping to French Disco (preferably in St. Barts). One, two, cha cha cha.
A man of many hats (both figuratively and literally) Daniel is a partner at Jacober Creative, our resident Industrial Design expert, and Head of Business Development. Born in El Salvador where he started his career at Ogilvy & Mather after graduating from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, he soon realized he wanted to hone his knowledge of marketing and budget management and jumped at the opportunity to get his MBA from EAE Business School in Barcelona.
Hailing from Cheltenham (aka The Garden Town of England) — Kerry was on her way to Australia when she made a pitstop in Miami for 15 years. With a background in Accounting and a specialization in computer systems design & installation, Kerry began programming (for fun!) by picking up a couple of books out of sheer curiosity.
Today, she leads an expert team of Jacober Creative developers in their preferred platform of Django/Python — which we love for its elegance, power and simplicity — much like Kerry herself. In addition to her encyclopedic programming knowledge, Kerry is also a veritable Michelin Guide on St. Petersburg, Florida’s best happy hours.
Doing her best Texas Two Step all the way from Austin to Miami, Nicole brings her marketing experience and commitment to making her own work contribute to the greater social good to Jacober Creative. She adds her grounding as a professional photographer to the mix, and of course is fluent in all sorts of current digital media and software.
Nicole earned a B.S. in advertising with a minor in Spanish, from the University of Austin, as well as a year studying in Barcelona. Naturally she loves tacos, Florida sunsets, and traveling.
Bowie tumbled into our lives when he was brought to our office on Halloween 2016, in need of a home. He’s been working in our client relations department ever since. He regularly sits in on creative meetings and proactively lends a hand (paw), mostly around lunchtime.
Charlie is our Chief Canine Officer. Although lacking in size, he makes up for it by scaling the tallest object. Probably the most judicious member of our team, he enjoys long naps and going commando whenever possible.

Some of our clients have worked with us for years, from initial logo design to an annual refresh of a website - as ever-changing technologies and fashions demand.

We have a never - ending desire to work on a great brand with great people. When JugoFresh needed a new identity, logo and website Jacober Creative delivered. When the Town of Surfside wanted a new image and slogan Jacober Creative is the Miami design firm they called.
