Early life

Career

In 2017, Jacobo created Jordan Loves on KPBS, a series that covers areas throughout San Diego such as the Coronado Bridge. He had previously made the web series Jordan Hates and wanted to create a show that expressed his cheerful side.[1] In 2018, Jacobo adapted a story from postal carrier Ryan Bradford into a short film called 92115.[2]
