I have more than thirty years of experience as an equipment reliability engineer, scientific investigator, writer, and educator. I currently teach secondary math and science in Colorado. I learned about OpenWetWare from DIYBio.org via the Make Magazine RSS feed, and I've joined because I want to contribute.
