[[File:NahomF Profile IMG.jpeg|thumb|NahomF Profile IMG.jpeg]]Nahom Fissaha was born in Ethiopia and moved to America when he was five. Since being born he has been curious and enjoyed tinkering by nature. Imagine the number of toys and household items he broke and frantically trying to fix them before his parents found out at age 11....now double that number. He is always trying to learn something and often has his nose buried in YouTube's HowTo section or listening to peoples stories. As a young DIYer who loves working with people, majoring in general engineering at JMU's project based program and felt natural for him. An avid traveler and explorer of culture and natural wonders he also is working on a double minor in environmental and geographic science to protect them. Currently expanding his knowledge in these fields so he can transform his HowTo mindset, to a more technical understanding of systems and design processes at play.
He loves to generate new ideas and feasible solutions with the resources he is given.
When he is taking a break from school work, he can be found wondering the trails of the Shenandoah National Park with friends, painting away in his room, improving his coffee roasting skills, rock climbing or working at a non-profit called Our Community Place in downtown Harrisonburg.
As you can see he can be all over the place. So if you would like to contact him shoot him an email at fissahnm@dukes.jmu.edu. He usually likes to dedicate his focus to the people and place physically around him but usually responds back to emails look for a reply within 24 hours.
