About Me

Hi! I am Tammi Redd! I am a professor at Wheaton College in Norton, Massachusetts. I teach classes in Entrepreneurship and Creativity. I look forward to sharing what I learn through the Fab Academy experience to make rapid prototyping the "norm" in the Entrepreneurship classroom.

Previous Creative Work

In the past I have helped students launch product prototypes that were social impact and sustainability focused. As a hobby, I am also a maker of bass guitars in my spare time. All of these were low-tech projects so I am particularly excited to have some hands-on experience with more sophisticated coding and manufacturing tools.

My Current Hobby as a Maker

Over the last year I have enjoyed tinkering and building guitars. I am most interested in building bass guitars that are lighter and smaller for women musicians. I enjoy the design aspect the most as it allows for creativity and several opportunities to learn new skills. Entrepreneruship exists in many forms and I consider myself a proud practitioner of idea generation, turnaround strategy, and opportunity exploitation.

Below is a picture of one of my latest creations with an online marketplace of custom guitar pickguards coming soon!
