Before the keynote speech at American Society of Engineering Management, ASEM@Rice , in the awesome meeting room in Ralph S. O’Connor Building for Engineering and Science.
I will be giving the keynote speech at American Society for Engineering Management, ASEM, to talk about how artist can inspire engineers and the impact of cross pollination.
