Working Up An App-etite

• The mobile application space is growing, and our friends at jācapps, a leading provider of mobile solutions, recently made several important personnel moves to accommodate its continuing expansion. The company has more than doubled its staff in the past year as it enjoys significant growth in all business categories, including radio, logistics, health care, travel and tourism and others. That being said, jācapps is pleased to announce that Jody Messinger (left) has been promoted to VP, Operations, Ben Levy (center) has been promoted to Director of Software Architecture and Nathan Turner (right) joins the company Director of Product Development.

“Jody joined us almost two years ago as Director of Production, and her impact on how we operate was instantaneous and has allowed us to scale the way we have,” said COO, Bob Kernen. “This promotion will allow Jody to further expand her impact on the growth of jācapps by taking on an expanded range of responsibilities. She’s proven herself again and again, and we’re delighted to recognize that.” Speaking of Levy’s promotion, Kernen said, “Ben has always been one of our go-to guys when it comes to new technical challenges and opportunities and it’s time that becomes his primary focus instead of a side gig.”

In welcoming Turner aboard from his previous position as head of UI/UX design at web development firm, Entrega, Kernen said, “It was time for us to have some senior leadership over our design group and Nathan brings tremendous expertise and creativity. We’re excited for him to make an impact on our overall product strategy.”

Paul Jacobs, President of jācapps, remarked, “Each of these moves enables jācapps to invest time and resources to develop new products as well as providing our clients with outstanding service. Our rapidly expanding list of clients is expecting more from us, from websites to new platforms, and of course, great mobile applications, and this expanded team is up to the challenge.”
