Jim Young

Seattle, WA

I'm an independent industrial designer living just outside Seattle in the beautiful Snohomish Valley. I love making things. Design is my livelihood, my passion, and my hobby. When I'm not working I'm either on an adventure with my 3 boys or volunteering my time to my community.
