As a maker, San Diego-native Scott Swaaley is a triple-threat.  He can build things; he can teach; and he can start and run his own business.  An electrical engineer who became a high school teacher, Scott started Make Safe Tools in 2018 to produce products that make workshops safer.  One of its products is the MakeSafe Power Tool Brake. In this podcast episode, I talk to Scott about his experiences as an engineer, educator and entrepreneur, and "how those experience overlap in unexpected ways." However, seeing himself as "constant learner" and willing to try things he didn't know if he could do were both reasons he became successful at each endeavor. @sswaaley
