Meet the Author
Dr. Amy Elliott is a 3D printing researcher at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and an advocate for girls interested in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) careers. Because of her love of being in the shop and building machines hands-on, Dr. Elliott placed second in an engineering reality competition hosted by The Discovery Channel called The Big Brain Theory. Following this experience, she was invited to co-host on 6 seasons of The Science Channel’s Outrageous Acts of Science, among other media productions. Dr. Elliott’s passion as a role model is to “share the wealth” of STEM and trade careers both literally and figuratively, as she believes these careers are not only lucrative but can also be fulfilling opportunities for women. Dr. Elliott was recently selected as one of over one hundred AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science) IF/Then Ambassadors, which designates her as a STEM role model by providing media resources and a life-sized 3D printed statue of her and the other ambassadors. In her spare time, Dr. Elliott likes to tinker with her 3D printers and spend time with her family, usually building something in the garage.
