I live in Somerville and, in the mid-2010s, I started to hear about this great makerspace near Union Square. My first milestone at Artisans was getting tested on the Bridgeports – and then Covid came along. I helped with the PPE program and was inspired by the volunteerism of the members. I joined the board in 2020, served as co-chair for a couple of years and am now chair of the governance committee (which includes recruiting new board members.) My career has been in manufacturing and entrepreneurship and I’ve been part of a few startups in the Boston area over the past 25+ years. I dabble in woodworking and enjoy renovating old houses (especially the demolition) but my real love is shellfishing.
