Dan9186 in downtown New Orleans
My name is ”’Daniel Hess”’, and I’ve grown up in the city of Memphis, Tennessee. In January of 2010 I and a few others formed a local hackerspace known as Midsouth Makers. Since the formation of the group, I have served as the treasurer and assisted in every way possible to help establish the group as a predominant creative hobbies organization within Memphis.
My formal education is from Christian Brothers University located on the edge of Midtown. I chose CBU due to it’s reputation in engineering as well as the fact that I was given a considerable amount of tuition via scholarships. Graduating in the spring of 2009, I was awarded two Bachelor of Science degrees, one in Computer Engineering and the other in Computer Science. As such I’ve got experience in everything from circuit design to full on programming, with a favoritism towards web based applications. I spend the vast majority of my time furthering my education by means of tinkering and experimenting with all the newest gadgets and concepts I can get my grubby little hands on. As a result of that I have formed this website to follow some of my adventures in creating, destroying, and playing with the new things I come across.
