Jonathon, or “J”, specializes in all kinds of robotics and design, but has an especial affinity for the mechanical aspects. He possesses an array of STEM skills (including CAD, CAM, and fabrication) and has developed many projects – both as the sole author and in concert with a local tech club – involving hydraulics, autonomous robotics, and game design. He also enjoys melding music and technology, going so far as to create music and film content with a variety of DAWs (digital audio workstations). Ultimately, J aims to encourage students to take joy in all kinds of creativity, helping them discover and cultivate their unique talents and provide them with the tools and social connections they need to realize their full potential.

In his free time, J loves making videos, composing music, and hanging out with his two cats, Nyx and Artemis!
