What can 40 years of curiosity lead to? For University of Toledo engineering alumnus JJ Dai, it led to a career spanning software development, global leadership and public service.

After earning his Ph.D. in electrical engineering from UToledo, Dai helped develop technologies supporting critical power systems, led international initiatives and later served in federal energy work. Through it all, one mindset guided him:

Curiosity. Discovery. Contribution.

Now, he's encouraging the next generation of engineers to stay curious, embrace new challenges and never stop learning.
