The author of this blog is Brandon Leedy, and here's a little bit about him in his own words: "I'm an Industrial Designer. I aim to make products that last and are valued by their users. I like the fuzzy front-end of industrial design that's full of new ideas, theory, and sketching. But I also enjoy rendering and especially presenting. Storytelling is something vital to good design and I love being apart of that aspect. I'm currently employed at Stress Engineering Services as a part of their Innovation Group on a contract basis. The Stress Innovation Group is a collective of designers, engineers, and specialists focused on creating products that are not only beautiful, but functional to the highest degree."
