Hobbies include hiking with my dogs, traveling, 3D printing, cap embroidery, handy work,

I highly enjoy walking and hiking with our two 7 month old puppies. I like them to familiar with the world around them and enjoy the outdoors as much as possible. I have traveled to quite a few places with the U.S. and a few places in Europe and would like to continue exploring other interesting and intriguing places around the world. I have self taught myself the intricacies of 3D printing along with 3D modeling and prototyping. I have also gotten interested in learning baseball cap embroidery which exercises my graphic design and layout principles. Growing up on a small farm in Michigan, I have learned how being handy, allows me to make what I have work or how to fix what is broken.
