Jacob Horton worked with the Nantucket Historical Association (NHA) for two years following graduation from the OHMA program. During that time, he developed content for a museum exhibition elucidating the experiences of Nantucket’s first-generation immigrant population, established a volunteer interviewing program, and organized the NHA’s standing oral history archive which holds oral records dating back to 1934.

He developed a series of social media products focused on sharing and highlighting oral history materials including a regular blog, mixed media content, and a 6-episode podcast titled “All Ears Nantucket.”

He is currently working for a biopharmaceutical corporation in Singapore as part of a multi-discipline design team, helping develop their ethnographic practices.
