Q : WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO WORK IN THE 3D PRINTING INDUSTRY ?
Kow : “ Throughout my childhood , I had a keen interest in learning the inner-workings of how things are made . This curiosity led me to study engineering at Sheffield Hallam University . As part of my Master ’ s Programme , there was an advance manufacturing module that delved into 3D printing technology and it was quite intriguing to me . I decided that the ever-changing and ever-growing 3D printing industry was where I wanted my career path to take me as an engineer .”
