Background

About Jay Harris

Having a degree in Mathematics, many years of professional experience in numerous fields and having worn many hats in the process, I have developed a wide skill set to apply to any endeavor. These fields include Engineering, Design, Architecture, Construction, Art, and Teaching. Within these fields I excel at problem solving, design and innovation and back them with strong communication skills. I have much to offer any employer in addition to my design and engineering strengths due to my diverse talents and experience. I am always valued as a team player and am often called upon regarding other challenges at hand. Mathematics ultimately is about problem solving which can be applied to everything. I draw from experiences and knowledge in seemingly unrelated fields to generate new ideas and concepts and also to solve elusive problems. I've always challenged myself to develop the best solution considering the circumstances. My strength as an artist always benefits and empowers me in everything I pursue. I can envision nonexistent objects in my mind, rotate the object to view it from all angles, even make changes to the design before I even sketch it out or put it into CAD. This enables me to better grasp the details required to develop and optimize any mechanical or architectural design. Often, I find that sketching enhances my ability to grasp new concepts, to better analyze issues and problems and it assists in communicating the details to others. I thrive on challenge and diversity and apply creativity to most if not all endeavors. I am a lifelong engineer, artist, musician and biologist. I'm competitive by nature, enjoy engaging in sporting activities and am fascinated by history. I love to build and create things and see my ideas come to reality. I enjoy sharing experiences and working with others. Please feel free to contact me via email even if it’s just to talk shop.
