Jack Wendell — Turning Curiosity Into Action

Builder · Researcher · Organizer

I like taking ideas apart to see how they work — and then building something with what I find. That has meant computers and iOS apps, an experimental propulsion system, a financial literacy series, and a lot of conversations with people who see the world differently than I do.

What ties it together is simple: I want the things I make to be useful to someone.
