Hi, I’m Jacob Chacko, a 39-year-old from Malaysia. I’m an ex-IT professional, musician, and writer who’s survived a long battle with addiction, prison, and trauma. Despite everything, I still believe in healing, redemption, and new beginnings. I’ve written a book called Stomped On about my life story — a journey from pain to purpose — and I’m now working on music that blends rap and rock to inspire others who’ve been broken by the system. I’m fighting to move to America for proper treatment using medicinal marijuana and to finally live free from fear and judgment. I just want a fair chance to rebuild my life, create art, and help others find hope.
