Book

Zero to Maker — A few years ago, my friend Eric Stackpole and I started building an underwater robot in his garage. We were searching for treasure in an underwater cave. The only problem: we had no idea what we were doing. Zero to Maker is the story of how I went from unemployed and unskilled to helping to create one of the largest volume underwater drone manufacturers in the world. And how anyone can do something similar.
