Who Am I?
Hey, I'm Jim! I am currently a masters student in electrical engineering at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU). I also hold a BS in Electrical Engineering and a BA degree in computer science.
I will always be an engineer first. However, I am fascinated by how design thinking and entrepreneurship can be interwoven with engineering to create something greater than the sum of their parts.

I’m a very big foodie, love to cook, and will go out of my way to find the best restaurants in town!
