Who am I? I'm an Urban Designer. Here we go again with another obfuscatious term, ok, an Urban Designer is a cross between an architect and a city planner. We design at a larger scale with the public's input. I was trained as an architect from the University of Miami and went on to get my Graduate degree at the University of California, Berkeley (Cal). Prior to that I was a computer programmer for about 10 years. Currently I'm working in Houston and this CNC thing is my hobby. It would have been very cool to have this CNC machine when I was in studio during attendance at the School of Architecture. Now you're thinkin' what's an Urban Designer doing with the CNC stuff. CNC is just cool, loud and proud! Really, I am facinated with robotics and the CNC enables me to cut out some really interesting parts for me with which to tinker. Patrick Hood-Daniel Allow me to introduce my apprentices offering the background entertainment (racket). Caterina on the left and Nicholas (Nicco) on the right. The all important vacuum cleaner in the back. Notice the board separating my work area from the kids. I am on occasion doing some dangerous things, so it's a good idea to keep the kids clear.
