| Introduction | I am a Jack of all trades, master of a couple. I am a power user of technical graphic software such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks and Inventor. I was a Tool and Die maker in a previous life, and now use my engineering degree to design retail stores. I value craftsmanship, and try to practice it in my personal and professional life. I get enjoyment from designing mechanical stuff, and making things (especially things that fly) from wood, and great joy from the company of my wife, our kids, and our (incredibly bright) grandchild. |
