We ❤️ lifting up our MNT-EC Partners -- and the work that The Kavli Nanoscience Institute at Caltech https://bit.ly/422JBjw does is always worth sharing. Their lab is packed with amazing equipment (understatement) and, if you didn't know, it is a multi-user #nanofabrication #cleanroom that’s open to non-Caltech lab users. 👍 #science #education

We think you'll love listening to this episode. Eldon Whitis has some terrific insights and advice to share. #3dprinting #education #technician #communitycollege We're equally grateful you shared your time and enthusiasm with us. Click through and let us know what you learn.
I am excited to share that I was recently featured on the Micro Nano Technology Education Center (MNT-EC) "Talking Technicians" podcast. I was blessed with the opportunity to discuss my professional journey from high school to my role in industry-level additive manufacturing at Fast Radius and Sybridge Technologies to my current role as an Additive Manufacturing Project Specialist at Somerset Community College! Looking back, I’ve learned that seizing opportunities and embracing challenges can open doors you never expected. I hope my story inspires others to pursue their passions and push the boundaries of what’s possible! I really want to thank all of those who have supported me along the way.
