ABOUT THE DESIGNER
Brian Ferri is a mechanical engineering student at Carnegie Mellon University and a skilled do-it-yourself designer. He acquired his passion for do-it-yourself design through watching the classic television series MacGyver while in high school. He spent many of his summer evenings in suburban Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania playing baseball and attempting to replicate a number of MacGyver's ingenious creations. As a mechanical engineer, some of Brian's interests include automation, manufacturing, and robotics. Outside of the classroom, Brian enjoys construction projects, sports, and listening to country music. Brian earned a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University in May 2014 and expects to complete his M.S. this coming December.
