About
Mike and Melanie Perry are a young couple who are passionate about technology! They love to learn about and discuss new hardware, software, energy sources and recyclable products.
They met a few years ago as volunteers in a trade organization for drafters and designers, and, with Mike generously overcoming a 4,000 mi distance gap, they were married just outside San Rafael, California in 2006.
Their mutual love of all things dorky is what led to their decision to create this website. It’s a joint venture to make the most of all of their passions and skills and share them with other like-minded individuals.
Mike has a few years of experience as a Civil and Structural designer, previously working for worldwide AECOM.
Most recently, he’s worked as a Forum Manager and blogger for the above-mentioned trade organization as a member of their Board of Directors. These experiences have led him to become more skilled in web technologies and people management, and his compassion and attention to detail are unrivaled.

Melanie has eight years of experience as a CADD Coordinator in the Engineering department of one of the country’s largest medical facilities. She is excited about the possible leaps in efficiency with the effective utilization of databases, CAFM and BIM in addition to the usual CAD.
She is also the Salary Survey Manager for the above mentioned trade-organization. Accounting peppers her school and work background (but, let’s face it, Melanie just can’t sit through four years of accounting classes, and chose a different career path).
Melanie also loves to write and edit. Her experiences mainly lie with technical topics (in magazines, newsletters, short videos, podcasts and books).
