Jeff Sturges loves making things, connecting people, and eating at potluck dinners. Inspired by his experience at the MIT Fab Lab program at Sustainable South Bronx, the NYCResistor hackerspace, and Cranbrook Academy of Art, he moved to Detroit to develop community workshops.  Jeff believes that through collaborative making and rapid sharing of knowledge, we the people can make things better.  He also believes that this will lead to more potluck dinners. http://www.omnicorpdetroit.com and http://www.mtelliottmakerspace.com
