Manage episode 288487893 series 2800737
My guest today is Dillon Mitchell, an engineer and entrepreneur who left his job working work long hours designing commercial buildings as he realised he was getting stressed out and knew there is better solution to this. He moved across the country, and started a software company that generates electrical designs in minutes allowing engineers to focus on engineering and be home with their families in time for dinner.
