Mr. Hall
Jacob A. Hall was employed by Donald F. Duncan, Jr, son of Donald F. Duncan, the original founder of The Duncan Yo-Yo Company, as a teacher and demonstrator at Mr. Duncan's Tucson, AZ "Yozeum" and Playmaxx ProYo factory, styled as "The ProYo Kid."
Mr. Hall taught the hundreds of children who would come through the doors of the Yozeum each Summer and demonstrated at the factory, in malls, summer camps, and various other local venues.
His professional association with Playmaxx/Pro-Yo brought a sponsorship for Mr. Hall to the 1995 AYYA World Championships, en route to his divisional World Championship win.
Mr. Hall was a local and regional champion in Arizona before traveling to Las Vegas for the World Championships, held that year during the International Jugglers’ Association Convention.
Today, Mr. Hall has enjoyed several stops on his career journey: a top aide to a U.S. Congressman, a respected veteran teacher at a large independent school in Bel Air, Los Angeles, CA, and now a broker and property manager with a focus on Investment Real Estate properties.
