277: Bill Steele Interview - Printing the Future

"Just ship it." - Bill Steele

William “Bill” Steele - Co-founder and Chief Engineer of Polar 3D

William “Bill” Steele and Ed Estes, a former Microsoft executive, and a former software company owner had an idea in 2013. They wanted to make a difference in the world by inspiring students to think like entrepreneurs. To free students’ creativity and bring their imagination to life – in real time – using design thinking and 3D printing. But how to do that? 3D desktop printing was expensive, hard to use, and maintain and the printers were large. A lot of those issues were brought on by the inherent and traditional way 3D printers are designed and built.

272: Alex Hernandez Interview - The H Project

'No matter what you're doing or where you're at, you can be successful...you can make it happen." - Alex Hernandez

Alex Hernandez 

"My name is Alex Hernandez. I am an entrepreneur, lifetime-natural fitness athlete, full-time business student, and fitness trainer. I was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. I am currently pursuing a degree in business at Dixie State University in St. George, Utah.

Some say I am part of the “select few" and am lucky as I was blessed with knowing what I wanted in life at such a young age. Some call me an old soul and others are skeptics of my vision.

I do not believe I am special or part of a select few. I truly believe every single person knows what they want or desire to accomplish in their lifetime - some just aren't conscious of it yet. Figuring this out doesn’t take some sort of magic, but an understanding of who we are as people."

271:  Jared and Anna Dupree Interview - Married Entrepreneurs

"...understanding your spouse's communication style and timing is key." - Anna Dupree

Jared and Anna Dupree 

Dr. Jared DuPree is an innovative thinker. He applies his deep understanding of patterns and connections to various areas including healthcare, entrepreneurship, wellness, business development, and economic development. Having earned a PhD in Human Ecology from Kansas State University, an International MBA from the nationally ranked Moore School of Business of the University of South Carolina and a MS of Family Therapy at the University of Southern Mississippi, Dr. DuPree relies on theories and applications derived from the social sciences, economics and business to innovate. Equally, he values spirituality, the experience of others and the classics to contribute to his ongoing learning. If you can't find him in a classroom teaching or at a desk writing, you may find him in the backwoods of Montana fishing, among the cliffs of southern Utah mountain biking, sitting on a porch in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, or speaking with the natives of some distant land.

Anna DuPree received her BFA in Dance Performance and Choreography from the University of Southern Mississippi. She has taught Modern, Ballet and choreographed original works for Kansas State University and San Jacinto Community College. Anna founded League City Dance Academy in a suburb of Houston, TX.

270: Christoffer B. Wallin Interview - Gathering, Publishing, and Earning

"...creators deserves their right as a vital part of every society." - Christoffer B. Wallin

Christoffer B. Wallin - Founder and Gardener at Pindify, Founder of Jamclouds and Part-Owner of Sprinklebit

"I'm a fortunate beloved husband, father and friend who sincerely believes that creators deserves their right as a vital part of every society.

Started Backstage in 2006 to help local artists be on stage and get promoted with larger headliners. In 2011 I helped my brother start Sprinklebit while I started Jamclouds “The collaborative platform for musicians to unite and collaborate in a real-time online studio”. Today I'm growing a Creators Market named Pindify.

After being reborn at the age of 30 I started to organize my purpose into a book which I'm continuously writing; "The Art of Struggle"

I've created many songs, been the lead-singer for 5 bands and sadly, yet under the circumstances; understandably, received the “Golden Ticket” from the TV-production; Swedish Idol.

Project Manager and Developer at BTS for 5 years where I led and developed projects such as the Training Portal for The Coca Cola Company. Other clients include HP, Vestas, PMI, Logica, DHL, AT&T, AOl, Ericsson, EADS, to mention some. I got a paycheck every month and learned several diversified "things".

One of my proudest accomplishments was to periodically being a bartender and waiter for over 13 years. It fueled my heart with that sweet bitterness you need in today's ironic society and gave me strength to move on after several years of people laughing at the “creative” dreamer (entrepreneur).

I agree with Mark Twain's statement: " I've never let my school interfere with my education" but I did power through a Bachelor’s degree in Economics with Honors of Highest Distinction, from University of Utah, Minoring in Business Marketing at David Eccles School of Business."
