Education Coordinator at FamilyTreeDNA

Jim Brewster

After graduating in 2012 with a BA in anthropology from Northern Arizona University, Jim Brewster wandered into the world of genetic genealogy and has never looked back. Over the past decade, he has been a noted speaker for genetic genealogy conferences and filled numerous positions at FamilyTreeDNA.

Jim has developed a knack for explaining complex concepts in a way that non-scientists can understand. He's not a scientist; he just plays one on TV. He is currently the Education Coordinator for FamilyTreeDNA and helps provide educational content for the Help Center, Blog, and speaking events.
