About Me

I'm Jonathan Young, a software engineer / entrepreneur who loves building cool stuff.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me at the gym training for an Ironman, on the ice playing hockey, relaxing with a good book, or I'm locked into some random new interest.

Other Stuff

I recently graduated from St. Olaf College with a degree in Computer Science with a Management Studies Concentration. I am currently a Software Engineer at US Bank based in Minneapolis, MN.

The most recent side project I've been working on is Eighty Hard. My friend's and I created a challenge similar to 75 Hard and we needed a way to track our progress. So, I built an iOS app to help us do just that.

I also created another app called QuoteFlow. It's an app for book lovers and quote enthusiasts to track their books and favorite quotes all in one place. It's free on the App Store, so check it out!
