Here is a draft visualization of the structure as developed by a community champion. Thanks Amanda.

Name: Slade
Position: Admin
Qualifications: Last year, I setup a makerspace at a private school so that I could teach high-school-level technology. A large part of that was being a liaison with the school district to ensure educational standards were being met. Other key tasks included setting safety and community standards; determining what kinds of projects we could feasibly do with our restrictions of equipment, time, and space; and organizing competitions (e.g., robot wars). I was also a member of the program design committee, which required making a macroscopic evaluation of how the school operated. As someone who has designed and taught courses in 3D printing, robotics, crafting, and electronics, I believe I also have at least a basic understanding of the wide variety of specialist subjects that people will be bringing to the space; this will help me to address the needs and concerns of our maker community.

Name: Amanda Becerra
Position: Outreach
Qualifications: I recently moved from Washington DC to the Tri-Cities and have been looking for a place to make stuff! In addition to being a self-proclaimed artist and DIY-er, I am a training and outreach coordinator by trade and spend my time outreaching to the public safety community and designing training curriculum and programs. I also have experience in program management, drafting federal grant applications and managing grant funds, conference/working group planning, and composing standard operating procedures/bi-laws/charters/planning infrastructure documents. One reason I moved out of DC was that I wanted to live in a place that took pride in their community and I think that the Tri-Cities is fortunate to have such a community. It’s the perfect place to support a “maker’s space” and I am excited to be a part of the project!

Name: Art McBain
Position: Resources
Qualifications: I would like to run for the Resources position. I am no stranger to helping lead groups and making decisions, as an Eagle Scout and former member of my university's student ACM organization. I am passionate about making things, doing cool stuff, and having fun. I'd like to be able to help steward this local resource to enable others to do the same. I visit a hackerspace in Seattle to do various laser cutting projects for awards, art, and just for fun. I have an interest in learning a big of modelling to use my 3D printer and perhaps dabbling more in small electronics in the future. As this hackerspace would be a great place to do these things locally and provide services such as workshops and tools to aid, I feel it is my duty to help bring it to a reality rather than just tag along for the ride.

Name: Nick Napoli
Position: Legal
Qualifications: I was born and raised in Philadelphia, where culture and community pour from the back alleys and gush from the cheesesteaks. This made the my move to the Tri-Cities three years ago, a bit of a shock. Basically, my selfish goal is to have a studio space to make art and meet cool people. By helping to make a makerspace, I hope to inspire the community to see the potential of the area so that we can work together to build culture in the desert. I have held many titles in life: communications consultant, web designer, rocket scientist, gummy candy shot glass manufacturer, robot's bitch, zine maker, artist and community coordinator. I have experience starting and operating my own business and I have consulted others in how best to achieve their business goals. I have one degree in Mechanical Engineering and another in Computer Science/ Multimedia Arts. I have been involved in organizing a variety of community groups. Currently, I am an organizer for Art Hacks (http://www.meetup.com/arthacks/). Sometimes I make art that actually gets shown to the public ;-) My art has been shown at the Artomatic419, the WSU Tri-Cities gallery and in the pages of PunctureVine magazine. I hope to contribute to the decision making process by helping to create a fair and open system of governance for the space that will support the ideals of the group.

Name: Tanya Lasuk
Position: Financial
Qualifications: After spending an entire career as a programmer, team lead, and project manager in companies all around the country, October 1, 2013 I was suddenly without a job and with no desire to ever working for someone else again. I was free to be me and have been enjoying every minute. My projects have been rewarding in amazing ways. I now have the entrepreneur bug and am rewiring my mind to focus on what I want to do and how I want to do it.
