Cool Tools show

Summary: Simone Davalos has a long and storied history of aspiring to being a technological reprobate. For many years she settled for moving people to terrified delight with competitions and events involving as many different kinds of robot as possible, a move which has landed her in the Guinness Book Of World Records - twice. Her careers have included, but are not limited to: dive bar gal Friday, assistant marching band pyrotechnician, circus dork, online used car part sales, Survival Research Labs groupie and unindicted co-conspirator. She is now Projects and Tech Support Engineer at Other Machine Co., and when she’s not answering your questions she enjoys placating people with cake.
