Hello there! I’m Jacob Grandstaff.

Thanks for visiting!

I created this site as a journalism portfolio. I also occasionally blog here. In addition to original posts, I often cross post from my history site and other outlets like Medium.

I grew up in Florida and graduated with an MA in history from the University of North Alabama in 2019. After working in politics and journalism in Massachusetts and the Washington, DC. area, I moved to Jacksonville. I currently write as an investigative researcher for Restoration of America.

This blog may include travelogues, personal experiences, and my take on economic and cultural trends. Most of my professional content gears toward news and politics.

Feel free to drop me a line in the comments or by email if something I wrote rubbed you the right or wrong way.

I’m always open to freelance or ghostwrite.

Let’s connect!
