Gary Meacher
Creative Professional + Educator + Nerd
I’m a highly motivated person. I set crazy standards for myself and enjoy a challenge.
I’m a born and raised Clevelander, so I have a soft spot for the underdog. All it takes is hard work and motivation.
I manage a balance of analytical and creative skill sets. I'm just as passionate about research as I am about design. I enjoy critiquing and lecturing design, promoting the value of research and stressing the importance of creative problem solving. As a design instructor, I can share my passion for the field and foster growth in the culture.
Education is never ending for me. I will forever take on new challenges in an attempt to better myself and my surroundings.
I'm weird and nerdy in a lot of ways, but I’m not afraid to show it. I love movie memorabilia (anything to do with Vincent Price), techy stuff (anything with an Apple logo on it), designer toys, comic books, action figures, and all sorts of music. At one point I even collected PEZ dispensers. (Why? I don’t know).
I feel I am the embodiment of the term "Nerd"; I embrace it. I obsess about any venture I take on. I channel my inner blue-collar upbringing and tell myself "If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing well."
