My name is Dan Salvesen and I am a multidisciplinary designer, programmer & machinist. I grew up outside of Chicago, and graduated from DePaul University in 2008 with a Bachelor's Degree in Art & Design. I am currently a CAD Designer and Programmer in the manufacturing industry. I love design in all aspects, from conception to completion.
As I grow older, my love of design has bled into other disciplines, such as woodworking and steel fabrication. I just love building something from scratch, whether it starts with a pencil, a scrap piece of wood, or just a plain old idea. To me, design is all about communication. The medium becomes secondary, and how the message is received is what speaks volumes.
I live in Plainfield, Illinois with my wife Sari, our daughter Savannah, our son Dylan and our furball Newfypoo Beatrice.
