Professional
I'm a self-taught Mac geek, having majored in philosophy at Central Methodist University in 1993. I first discovered the internet at my first job as a technology assistant for the special education department of the Olathe District Schools in the form of a local BBS. From that moment on I was hooked.
After a varied career in Corporate America serving many different functions, from market research at ETC Institute to tech support and technical writing at Cerner Corporation, I started my own small consulting company Jake Fowler Consulting.
I am also now employed by the Kansas City Art Institute as the Faculty Liaison and Project Manager in Campus Technology.

Personal
I'm a native of Kansas City, Missouri. I've lived somewhere in the KC metro area most of my life. I'm married to the love of my life, Maura Cluthe. We have several pets - two great dogs, Ben & Lucy, one cat, Luna, and a fish, Yoshimi. I read incessantly - just about anything I can get my hands on. I have a B.S in Philosophy. I played tuba in high school. My current favorite at Murray's is One Drunk Monk.
