Play episode

Show notes

A lifelong curiosity about how things work led John Kamal to earn a master’s degree in mechanical engineering, which led to Career #1 as an aerospace engineer, Career #2 as a supply chain software innovator and Career #3 as a public school teacher. And then, there’s the accordion.

John’s creativity has been written in all these venues and it’s still going strong. Hear about his invention that showed up in the movie The Martian and his thoughts on teaching STEM in American public schools at a time when homegrown talent in science and technology is sorely needed.
