      Hi.
      It was more a love of tinkering – of taking things apart and putting them back together – or trying to. I still get that “wow – that’s cool” feeling about new gadgets and want to understand what’s inside, and have to resist the urge to pull them apart. (The screen on my iphone cracked last week, and i was excited because it was an excuse to take it apart and repair it. Fiddly but fun).

      The ability to create and fix things was something that definitely drew me to be an engineer. 🙂
