About Me
I am a fun person with an unending curiosity for how things work and how we can improve them to make our lives better.
-
My Typical Day
My usual day usually starts with responding to other researchers and discussing ideas. I read other research from other engineers and scientists working on 3D printing to stay up to date and think of ideas for improving 3D printing designs. Some days I do experiments building parts on a plastic 3D printer which is a lot of fun.

What I'd do with the prize money
If I won I would buy a plastic 3D printer and printing materials to bring to school visits to show them how 3D printing works.
