"Mechanical Engineer by day, body painter by night" has been the tagline on my various online profiles for over 15 years (gosh, how has it been so long!?)

During my time as both, I have had the pleasure to interact with some of the most interesting humans I have ever met in my life, and participate in projects that have changed the very fabric of our daily lives and altered the world we live in visible ways. Whether discussing steampunk color theory over doughnuts with a YA author or debugging satellite control software with a Professor Emeritus, I enjoy the connections between disparate parts of life, and the people who bridge them.
