3DN: Could you introduce yourself and your connection to 3D Printing?

I am the Manger of Operations of the Rapid Prototyping Center at Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE). With four full-time staff, plus about 15 undergraduate and graduate students, we provide additive manufacturing education, applications development, and services to a non-compete consortium of about 45 industrial partners. In addition to providing professional education to our consortium, we’re also training our student employees on the “How, Where, and Why” 3D printing can add value to the product development cycle. Many of our graduates continue with a career path in the additive manufacturing industry!
