About
Dr. Jacob Kendall helps patients, caregivers, and providers do better at heart disease and, by extension, life in general. Our health is 4-dimensional (or more), and so should be our healthcare. He has had 2 open-heart surgeries and has been a full-time caregiver for multiple members with heart disease. Jacob also is a theogerontologist with a broadly interdisciplinary background in biology, social work, and public health. For fun (and also spiritual growth) he reads a wide range of literature, his favorites being quantum mechanics, animal behavior, early American history, religion, and Stephen King. Indeed, his lifelong goal since childhood has been to become a true Renaissance person, which also – in addition to the above – has included accumulating 25 passport stamps so far and learning and enjoying multiple musical instruments. He currently lives with his wife and son on Mobile Bay in Alabama.

About
I am a professional with a strong background in analytics. I received my Master of Science degree in Financial Analysis from Gordon College in 2023; I learned to acutely apply financial concepts, including those that I had been studying on my own through personal projects from as far back as 2017. Before that, I earned a Graduate Certificate in Big Data and Analytics from DeVry University in 2021, where I learned about advanced analytical techniques and practices as well as the foundations of database administration and project management. I also hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering from Mercer University. My time here exposed me to foundational calculus concepts, up to basic differential equations. I currently work as a Senior Pricing Analyst at HD Supply, where I am responsible for analyzing internal financial, customer, and vendor data to influence operational and strategic executions with the goal of driving business performance. I was a Purchasing Analyst for US LBM Holdings before I joined HD Supply. I supported the overall supply chain of US LBM's Atlanta branch by frequently conducting financial and supply chain analyses and occasionally conducting vendor management activities. I also regularly engaged in pricing analysis while providing support to the sales team. I am very capable when it comes to engaging in deep, empirical analysis to support strategic decision making, with a special focus on B2B pricing, and I aspire to pursue a doctorate in economics in the next five years. I have joined NotedSource to further my development by lending my skills and expertise to an array of clients while working towards my longer term goals.
