+ | Thank you for the nomination to the Quelab Board of Directors. I joined Quelab a couple of years ago with the goal of starting a hobby that I didn’t “have to do” and would therefore enjoy; or so the logic went. What I am coming to find since joining Quelab however, is that starting a new hobby and enjoying it, is more of a prolonged journey than a short and discrete event. Like most Quelab members, I am a constant fixer and tinkerer. I enjoy most things mechanical, electrical, chemical, and I have an appreciation of the hard work done by others, in so many other fields! | ||
+ | |||
+ | I love the Quelab people and enjoy the Quelab vibe/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | If elected, I will work to continue the advancement of Quelab as a Maker organization to the best of my abilities. | ||
