Sean O'Reilly

Founder and President 3D Printsmith, LLC

Sean O'Reilly is the founder and president of 3D Printsmith LLC, Brighton, MA, an engineering contract and consulting company for 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions.

In this talk, Sean weighs in at the STEM² Summit on the rise of this new industry and how it factors into STEM education.

Mr. O'Reilly specializes in tackling difficult and mission critical 3-D printing, 3-D scanning & reverse engineering projects, and enjoys helping clients explore additive manufacturing for engineering, medical & sculptural applications.
