Jim Hill

Be better, build better.

My Passion

Responsible Computing

We are in the midst of a data revolution and much like the industrial revolution, software engineers have a responsibility for how it affects our society.

Health and Wellness

Health is a fundamental human right and health data should help individuals not increase the profits of large corporations.

Climate Impact

Climate change is the existential crisis of our generation.

Education Reform

Education is not personalized and technology can increase the availability and accessibility of learning to everyone.

Financial Freedom

Not everyone is an entrepreneur. Creators and builders should be unencumbered by money to enhance their impact on the world!

My Projects

Luggage

Data does not belong to corporations. It belongs to us. This project hopes to provide an open-source interface for making your data safe, secure and portable.

Gumby

Data-driven health and fitness for everyone.

Passion Fruit

When encumbered by too many dreams and goals, a platform of tools to accelerate many ideas at once is needed.

Blue Eel

Literacy is the single most important outcome in a child's life. Let's not forget about those who struggle.

Fire

Financial planning tools for everyone so they can better understand the consequences of their decisions.

My Hobbies

Space Exploration

I have always been interested in space and I believe that becoming multi-planetary is important for humanity. I just don't know yet how I can help or if it is our most pressing concern.

Fitness

A sound body is key to a sound mind. Through running, swimming, and climbing I find my peace in a healthy life.

Natural Beauty

I long for the beautiful vistas and natural places in this world. I want to preserve and sustain them for all generations!

Physics and Math

Physics and math have always intrigued me. I would love to just spend all day working on fundamental unsolved problems in this space, but I am neither smart enough or focused enough. Instead, I am working on empowered those who are with financial freedom!

FIRST Robotics

Mentoring the next generation into being well rounded, thoughtful engineers brings me endless joy.
