About

Hi there! My name is Jacob Gillespie (I go by jacobwg on the internet), and I am a Christian university student studying Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas. I am a website developer, with an interest in web usability and web applications. I program in PHP and Ruby on the web and in C++ if it’s a complied language.

I participated in Google Summer of Code 2011 and worked on improving the WordPress media uploader. I got the t-shirt. :)

I have built websites for clients like the Texas Beekeepers Association (http://texasbeekeepers.org) and Desert Creek Honey Co (http://desertcreekhoney.com). Yes, I am also a beekeeper.

Feel free to check out some of my website work.

I am also a licensed Amateur Radio operator, General-class license. My callsign is KD5TEN… I first got my Technician license in 2002 when I was ten years old.

I enjoy learning about all things development and especially love to learn about usability as it relates to websites and web apps.

Want to get in touch? Email me@jacobwg.com! I’d be happy to talk! You can also reach me with my Skype ID jacobwg7600.
