Veteran Owned Start-Up, Enrichment for Schools
JJ Rohrer / Founder of School Twist
I am JJ Rohrer and Elegant Technologies (ET) is my personal website. Formed in 2004, Elegant Technologies was started as a company while I developed a 400 page online reference web site for the Air Force (The Project Officer’s Handbook – sadly – long dead link). ET enjoyed a brief stint as a Web 2.0 project providing online tools for HR managers… until I realized I really didn’t have a passion for HR software. Yeah – I was shocked by that one, too. ET also enjoyed a good run as a mobile app company.
