About me

without comments

I’m a maker and I love sharing the joy of making with others. More than anything, I enjoy learning about the world around me by imagining, creating, and testing my own projects. I HATE worksheets. My classroom is a makerspace. Alan Alda saved my life.

Also, I’m starting a makerspace for families in Downtown, Brooklyn. We don’t have a permanent venue yet, but we are doing pop-up makerspaces whenever we can and we are open every weekend now till April 30th in Cobble Hill: www.nycmakery.com

You can read a nice story about that project here:
