A treehugger as a teen, a designer of products (sustainable industrial design &eco-innovation, at least trying) as a maiden; now a mother, manic hobbyist, artist, housekeeper, company director and tinkerer. That much for labels. However, I have a good understanding of materials and hardware fixing skills, as well as some tools. With that minimum, I can act as a hacker of the material world, transforming one thing into another or a better version of itself, or a working version of itself.
