JT's Corner of the Internet
Jonathan (JT) · Electrical & Computer Engineering · NYU
Hey, I'm Jonathan Thomas (also sometimes known as JT). I'm a junior at NYU majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering. I love playing piano and music as a whole (I can talk to you about any genre you want), tennis, and videogames.
Right now, I'm a technical assistant at NYU's MakerSpace and the High Voltage lead at NYU Motorsports. I'm currently working on our accumulator to make a fast, efficient, and safe car. I'm also working on various music technology projects such as custom plugins for local producers and building my own audio hardware. See more projects below!
Contact me at jmt10102@nyu.edu or jothomas10102@gmail.com.
