Bio

About Jordan S. Hatcher

I’m a technology lawyer living in Amsterdam.

Originally from Texas, I’ve been a professional expat since 2004, having lived in Scotland and England for a combined total of 11 years before moving to The Netherlands.

Outside of law, among other things, I’m a father to a son with Trip 12 (a rare genetic mutation), and go to a lot of museums (Modern and Contemporary Art), live music, and arthouse cinema. In my other spare time, I run, research, and cook gumbo.

I am not to be confused with Katie Price or Jordan Firstman.

If I’m speaking at an event you’re having, and you want a short bio written in the third person, see below, including a serious face photo.
