The heart of Derby's Maker community
I’m currently 16 Years old andย I’m a chronic Maker/Hacker. I spend most of my day in front of a computer, be that at home or at school.
I really spend most of my time designing, building and breaking interfaces between the digital world and the physical. I have a love of 3D printers, CNC technology and anything I can both program and solder ๐
In the future I’d really like to build projects that add back to the community that has given so much to me, and educate younger generations about making the most of this amazing, constantly evolving world we live in, and specifically the technologies available within it. Ideally, when I graduate Secondary school I’d like to spend my life studying physics, involving my Hacker/Maker skills in there where ever I can ^_^
Recently, I have been seen darting around frantically at:
Derby Mini Maker Faire 2015
Raspberry Pi Birthday 2016
I’m also part of a fantastic group of young people experimenting and developing technologies (PiSquad) who influence my work and knowledge enormously ๐
I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for me and the maker community, and I’m positive Derby Makers will have a large impact ๐
