Certain that he knew exactly what he wanted to do with the rest of his life, Colton Nissen wanted to go fast and build fast cars. In a hurry to get the show on the road he managed to graduate from high school in 3 years. Less than another 3 years later Colton graduated from The University of Northwestern Ohio (UNOH) with his Associates degree in High Performance Automotive. Colton left with a new understanding of how systems come together to work in harmony, but he still wanted more. He then decided to begin studying Mechanical Engineering at Ohio University. During his time at Ohio University (OU) he worked as a research technician for the Ohio Coal Research Center, was involved with his personal startup business in the Innovation Center, and was a member of the Robe Leadership Institute. In the spring of 2016 Colton Nissen received his Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering from OU and is currently employed as a Vehicle Development Engineer at ZF Group.
