James Petersen

Hi, I'm James.

I'm currently working as a software developer focusing on solutions for education. As a former teacher, I'm passionate about using technology to empower learners to seek, find and use information to improve learning. Disrupting the incumbent education service providers who charge too much to deliver little value is how I would like to spend my career.

When I'm not at work, I spend my free time tinkering with hobby electronics in the smart home area of interest, usually involving 3D printing and lots of blinking lights. I also enjoy spending time outdoors, taking my dog for a walk among the fields of rural Quebec, paddling my canoe in one of Canada's many beautiful lakes and rivers, or working on some home improvement project, indoors or out.
