Jacob Burns
Assistant Project Manager, Phoenix
Jacob joined the Fieldwork Phoenix team in August 2018, fresh out of college, as a client service representative. The following year he helped manage the CSR team and coordinating with clients on facility needs. In 2020, Jacob stepped over to help Webwork with the increasing demand for online research. There he hosted online sessions and assisted in tech support for both respondents and clients. He returned fully to Phoenix in 2021, joining the Project Management team later that year as in-person research began its revival.
Born in Seattle, but raised in Phoenix for nearly as long as he can remember, Jacob’s favorite time of year is the desert monsoons – rain & thunder are a peaceful break from the beating sun. Despite his Washington heritage, he’s definitely an Arizona native, and has an affinity to everything Mexican food, especially breakfast burritos! In his off time, Jacob loves playing games of all sorts (board games, videogames, & sports) with friends. He also makes it a personal goal to experiment with emerging tech & electronics whenever possible.
