Jake Holden

Lead Developer
AKA 'Chaps'

Jake Holden is the Lead Developer at Hook, where he brings together sharp problem-solving skills and a creative eye. With a background rooted in both tech and design, he’s become a jake-of-all-trades in web development, UX/UI, and design—always focused on building sites that are as functional as they are beautiful.

He’s a self-taught, self-starter, driven by a strong work ethic and an even stronger faith. Jake believes his Creator gave him talents for a reason—and he’s committed to using them fully.

Outside of Hook, Jake’s an adventurer through and through. Whether he’s carving on the mountain, crafting in his workshop (one-car garage), or diving headfirst into a new hobby, he’s all about hands-on experiences. He and his best-friend, Hannah (who happens to be his wife), love traveling with their bernedoodle, Dottie.

Known around the office as “Cowboy Jake”, he’s been chasing the dream of working at Hook since college. He sent in his resume years ago hoping for an internship. Now, he's living that dream, creating sites that not only meet the highest standards but set new ones.
