Deanne Bell Deanne can recite many digits of pi, but her talents don't stop there! She received her B.S. in mechanical engineering in 2002 from Washington University in St. Louis. Her work experience ranges from designing FLIR (Forward Looking Infrared) and LADAR optical navigation systems for the aerospace industry to doing product development for a CAD software startup. Deanne is passionate about working with the next generation of scientists and engineers, and previously hosted Design Squad, an educational show for teens on PBS. When Deanne's not analyzing the destruction at Smash Lab, she seeks out global travel and outdoor adventure. She has hiked to the base of Mt. Everest, cycled from Seattle to Los Angeles, and backpacked solo throughout Asia. Deanne draws upon her background as a woman in science, and as an engineer on Smash Lab, to inspire others within the field of science and technology. She defies all stereotypes of what a typical engineer should be and speaks enthusiastically and candidly about her journey to success - without a pocket protector. From exploding a 747 to crashing a 300 ton train, Deanne illustrates how creativity is at the heart of scientific innovation, and how educational media can be used to promote diversity within the field of technology. |
