How To Make (Almost) Anything 2021-2022

Alex

About:

Hi, I'm Alex, a senior at MIT studying 6-14 (Computer Science, Data Science, and Economics). My interests lie in development economics, real estate, and backend software engineering. Outside of classes and work I enjoy being active by running, playing spikeball, and swimming.

Goal:

My goal in taking this class is to gain a breadth of fabrication knowledge to enable me to extend my abilities to make outside of the digital world. Follow along to see my successes and inevitable failures!
