About

I’m a writer and multimedia producer living south of the slot in San Francisco, currently working as the Technical Production Manager at Joyent where, among other things, I edit Joyeur.

You can find my work all over the place — I’ve contributed to Twitter Wit, NBC Bay Area, Penthouse, PC World, FastCompany, Hispanic Business, LifeHacker, Valleywag, Curbed SF, SFGate, Young Manhattanite, NewTeeVee, Web Worker Daily, Other Magazine, GigaOm, Fleshbot, The San Francisco Bay Guardian, SFist, McSweeneys.net and CNet.

I’ve also turned up incidentally at Time, Metblogs San Francisco, Mediabistro, The Fart Party, Edward Champion’s Reluctant Habits, Red Eye, Black Eye, KPIX, Ryan is Hungry, Slashdot, San Francisco Unscripted, the San Francisco Examiner and Grade the News.

I’m not to be confused with other awesome people named Jackson West worldwide, like the home-staging professional in Vancouver or the personal mail courier in Canberra.

Feel free to drop me a line, see what I’m up to at the moment or subscribe to personal updates.
