Dear beloved MAKE readers,
Today is my last day as Senior Video Producer for MAKE. The past four years have undoubtedly been the best times of my life so far. I’m immensely thankful to have been a part of such a dedicated, talented team– they’re like family to me.

Both young boys were outstanding participants at Maker Faire this past year. I’m really proud to see each of them recognized for their achievements as makers.
