Richard Wynn will share his journey of shifting careers after retirement. After working in the ID card industry for over 20 years and spending 13 years at Georgia Southern, he launched his own 3D printing business, Lunatic Designs. Richard will discuss what inspired him to make this move, how his experience in operations and management has benefited him, and what it feels like to start as a team of one.

He will also explore the possibilities that 3D printing offers and share insights on how he uses Bambu Lab printers to create unique and innovative applications. Richard will highlight some challenges that come with learning new technology, as well as the opportunities that digital manufacturing presents for small businesses.
