About Me

I'm a new member of The Maker Station and still learning what a Maker Space is all about. I am a 31 year-old Marietta kid. I spent 10 years as a professional student, wandering in the wilderness of the service industry. Now I am back in Marietta working for a civil-engineering consulting firm. I was raised in a tech household where the answer to questions was RTFM. I feel like it was a good way to grow up from a Maker standpoint. The question was never "Can it be done?" but "How do I do it?"
