2020 Statement of Intent - Jim Hartnett

I, Jim Hartnett, am announcing my intent to run for the 2020-2021 board of the Dallas Makerspace.

Hair has grown out a bit, and depending on the month I’ll shave. With COVID not around anyone for a good photo anyway. When I’m not running machinery I can also usually be identified by an alleged purple wolf tail, and will come when howled at.

I have been a member of Dallas Makerspace since 2018. Professionally, I am a security consultant for large enterprises. Volunteering, I’ve been chair of Metal Shop, Automotive, and the Infrastructure Officer for DMS and put in countless hours for other organizations.

Accomplishments include:

• organizing large number of volunteers for metal shop cleanup days
• teaching across 4 committees
• managing projects such as the metal shop gas system
• writing documentation videos for various network services
• regularly install and repair critical infrastructure such as workshop doors, ramp overhead doors, cameras, air hose drops, electrical for metal shop
• Deployment of new computer lab in the Pillar of Solitude

Goals for Board:

• Finish expansion
• Push the development of better documentation within committees and the organization as a whole
• Foster the development of more online and self-study classes
