About the store
I love teaching Design. Drawing, sketching, modeling, 3D printing, video production, building, constructing, manufacturing, writing and producing anything and everything. I taught Architecture, Engineering, Graphic Design, Video Production, Electronics, Materials & Processes and Robotics over the last 26 years. I learn by doing. I have worked in construction and developed as a CAD operator and graphic designer. I have shadowed in engineering and industrial design. I attended architecture school for two years and successfully ran two web-based companies for 5+ years each. In 2006, I developed and established The Design Academy, and have taught Design Thinking to thousands of productive designers. We also have exciting new lessons every year. Check out my About Us page at designthinkingprojects.com to see more projects.
