I’m based in San Francisco where I work on projects that bridge the gap between bits and atoms.
My free time is spent with my two daughters, playing & building pinball machines, repairing vintage computers, and dreaming about SPILFs (side-projects I’d like to finish).
The fastest way to reach me is by sending me a message on twitter at @jherrm, but feel free to send me an email at jeremy@jherrman.com.
Over the last 15 years I’ve founded companies that help make the tools of invention more accessible.

Founder & CEO 2008 – 2012
Chogger was a comic creation tool that grew to over 30K monthly users.
As founder & CEO, I formulated the initial idea, built the founding team, and prototyped the initial version used to raise a seed round. I also coded the entire comic creation tool and designed the site to match the look and feel of old school comics.
Chogger let you build comic strips by adding photos, drawings, and speech balloons with real comic book fonts. Check out this video to see how it worked:
