#0086: Kat Wilson on recognizing opportunities + navigating work at the 3D intersection of art and engineering

Meet Kat Wilson. Kat is the Assistant Director of the Hudson Valley Additive Manufacturing Center (HVAMC). HVAMC is a 3D printing lab on the SUNY New Paltz campus - a favorite hang for the digital design and fabrication students there. Kat holds an MFA in Metals from SUNY New Paltz and has over ten years of experience with CAD, 3D printing, and other fabrication technologies. Today, Kat is going to teach us all about 3D printing technology, the medical and educational application of 3D printing, and digital design and fabrication. All extremely fascinating topics! Plus, we'll learn how she landed her dream job at the intersection of art and engineering. Rounding things out, we'll hit on how she navigates some of her work obstacles and manages burnout. She shares poignantly about recognizing opportunities that arise, and the importance of saying Yes bravely. Also, I wanted to give a massive shout out to the entire HVAMC team who immediately answered the call for more protective face shields for health care workers at the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis. Thank you, thank you, thank you . And now, here is my conversation with Kat Wilson. Enjoy. Selected link love + resources from the episode:
