    By day I'm a field service tech for a heating controls company. I do on site start up and repairs on the equipment. I travel...a lot. Today I'm in Salina, KS and tomorrow I fly to Reno. Next week I'll be in Arkansas all week.

    I love to travel but it's getting to be a bit much. I especially don't like eating alone and my wife doesn't like me eating with strange women.

    My dream job would be one where I get to work with and travel with my wife. We are both nomads at heart. We are going on 14 yrs in April. No kids so we travel. I like building things and I like working with wood hence my current project on Kickstarter.

    My day job is being a college student. Over the years, I've grown to hate being stuck in a classroom, glued to the same seat for hours and hours.

    One of my reasons for wanting to pursue entrepreneurial ventures is to avoid being stuck in a classroom environment for too long. I want to go out into the world, take risks, meet amazing people, and experience life without having to pass through college as a 'rite of passage'.
    Our Kickstarter campaign for our watch company is currently live!

    By day I cover the childcare for my one year old and adhoc admin for mine and my husbands Financial Advice firm. By night I work three nights in a kitchen just to change things up and I seem to be a glutton for punishment!

    When not doing those jobs I find the time to indulge in some illustrations and creations working towards some childrens books in a graphic novel style as a way to get them into being able to read graphic novels. They are slow going with all the above happening but they give me that little bit of sanity to zone out and delve in.

    My day job is doing nothing due to being disabled. My dream project is to have a successful woodshop with a CNC machine.

    I'm a nurse but I like social media management and I'm trying to learn more about it. I discovered this passion because my husband and I have a project, our first indiegame that is a link between videogames, 3D printing and design, so I'm helping out with the social media campaign. But it's so hard to find the time to do it with a full time job! :)

    Day Job - Designing, Producing, Selling legal tender coins and bullion made of precious metal (usually silver)

    Passion Project - funnest part of my job is the designing of the coins. Trying to share the fun with coin collectors that don't normally get any involvement in what the coins are going to be. So we just started our first kickstarter (really the first kickstarter in our industry). Struggling to educate our customers on crowdfunding, but if successful we hope it will become a normal part of the industry in the future...just need the few brave souls like us to support it.

    In my previous life, I was a software engineer for a small company in Silicon Valley. By the time I started work on what ended up being my first Kickstarter project, I had been at my company for a few years and while the works was fulfilling, the new-job enthusiasm was starting to fade.

    Eventually, as I continued to work on the project on the side, I decided to turn it into a Kickstarter. Soon after, the combination of work being stressful, and the project being exciting drove me to take the dive and leave my day job to pursue the Kickstarter in ernest.

    I launched that Kickstarter and was funded and I haven't worked for a company since (going on 2 years now). It's been a fantastic and liberating experience working for myself and if the financials work out, I'm going to keep it that way for as long as possible.

    I own an events promotion company and have a passion project based around my experiences within it. It's an app, so doomed to fail, but something I'm very excited by should I ever get the opportunity to properly research and develop.
