Our Team
Rex M.
He/him/they/them
Even though he’ll rarely admit it, Rex is the reason this project exists. Creating a shared space for makers to live, work, and learn with, as well as from, each other has been a passion of his for years. Although he has dabbled in many art forms and can info-dump about all sorts of fascinating methods, his personal favorite is making art using fire and lasers.
Josh H.
He/him/they/them
As the Information Technology and Research Specialist, Josh assists with finding the right locale and implementing our sustainability goals. He is an unabashed Trekkie who once watched so many episodes of Star Trek on one network that he figured out their syndication loop schedule. Now, that’s love!
Ashes R.
They/them
Our Mediation and Consent Specialist, Ashes has been involved in the sex-positive movement since 2013. On top of having an academic background in psychology, they have attended regional consent conferences and lead workshops on the subject. They have been envisioning this space, along with Rex, since the beginning.
Jake B.
They/them
Our head of Safety and Training, Jake is a machinist’s apprentice by day and a gamer by night. In addition to being a podcast aficionado and leftist, they oversee acquisitions for our machine shop.
Denise L.
She/her
Project Manager, Motivation Maker, Morale Enforcer. On top of keeping us all grounded, alive, and on task, Denise is a phenomenal photographer. She also had a hand in creating the gorgeous website you’re currently staring at, so y’know, you’re welcome.
