Meet Richard Jacobs
My wife Brooke and I met 35 years ago, have 3 wonderful children and have lived in many places before calling Knoxville our home. My children are Chandler 26, a lawyer for Right Side Compliance, Brianna 25 a consultant for PWC and my son Max 19 is a sophomore in college. We are members of Gettysvue Country Club, reside in West Knoxville, members of the Tennessee theatre broadway series with season tickets, love boating on the various lake with friends, attend the VOLS games, and you will find us across Knox County restaurants in search great food and live music.
Prior to moving to Knoxville I spent 32 years in business working my way up to president of a division with $800M in revenue and 5000 plus people. Prior to that job I was the Chief Procurement office with $8B in spent across 87 countries. My educational background includes Clarkson University for a B.S., M.S., Columbia for General management and executive education at Harvard and the Haslam College of Business at University of Tennessee.
We love living in Knox County and looking forward to giving back to the community through public service.
