Jordan got his love for engineering from his dad, a master mechanic. Ever since he could pick up a screwdriver, Jordan would take his toys apart, figure out how they worked and put them back together.

He studied mechanical engineering technologies as an undergrad, and received his master's in prosthetics and orthotics from the University of Hartford. Jordan recently completed his research track orthotics residency at the University of California, San Francisco. Currently, he is completing his prosthetics residency at Shirley Ryan AbilityLab in Chicago.

Jordan is drawn to research as a means for increasing insurance coverage and improving patient care. He decided to pursue POP so he could use his mechanical and analytical skills to help others.
