Guest Bio:

My name is Nushrat and I work in manufacturing. I started out in automotive tech school with a passion for motorsport. I attended NASCAR Tech while working in manufacturing and fell in love with CNC machining. I combined my love for cars and machining by working as a valve manufacturer and swiss machine set up tech. Now I work overseeing safety and quality for a wood manufacturer - which gives me time to focus on designing 3D printed parts and to record my podcast Next Gen MFG where I interview people in the trades to inspire the next generation.
