Jeremy Walker
Jeremy Walker graduated from Olney Central College in 2015 with associate degrees in both Industrial Maintenance Technology and General Studies.
He chose to continue his education at Fullerton College in California where he focused on math, physics and engineering. He then transferred to the University of California, Irvine where he earned a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering before heading to Cornell Tech, the technology, business, law and design campus of Cornell University.
Walker finished his master’s degree in electrical and computer engineering by winning Cornell Tech’s prestigious 2020 Start Up Competition Award.
For their final project, Walker and Cornell classmate Tony Liebel developed Buzr, an easy-to-install device, which allows users to interact remotely, through a phone app, with their apartment building’s front door.
Walker conducted the engineering work on the project and serves as Buzr’s chief product officer.
Buzr was also the recipient of Cornell’s Ronald Fichtl and Frederick Fichtl Innovation Award, which recognizes the most innovative and best-developed concept from the Cornell School of Engineering’s annual Engineering Innovation Competition.
