Sacha (he/him) is a born tinkerer and has been nicknamed MacGyver by his family. He can fix anything and if it has wheels (whether it be two or four), he’ll race it! He has worked in the automotive industry for over 20 years with brands such as Lexus, Honda, and Volvo. More than one service technician has been shocked when he rolls up his business button-down sleeves and ventures under a car to help troubleshoot issues alongside them. When he’s not working in the automotive world, he’s recreating in the automotive world. Sacha owns a Honda S2000 that he has fully modified to track standards for autocross racing. He’s raced in the national championship five times. Sacha also races hobby grade RC cars which are capable of top speeds in excess of 70MPH!

Giselle (Jaz) (she/her): Jaz is an engineer, researcher, and homeschool mom who loves to make complex topics approachable for anyone who wants to understand. Whether lecturing in a college classroom, digging deeper into complicated subjects over Zoom, or racing across a classroom to teach kids about reference frames, she's always willing to find the best way to help a student truly learn the material. She firmly believes that we can't learn what we don't use, and so she strives to help students find the application in every subject. She holds bachelors degrees in both electrical and mechanical engineering as well as a master's in electrical engineering and is most of the way through a doctorate. She's also taught in person homeschool classes to students from 5-18 and university courses both at the undergraduate and graduate level. When she's not teaching, doing research, or homeschooling, she's visiting the local vintage bookshops to add to her collection of technical books and literature, reading, playing through a logic based video game with her kid, cooking an awesome meal, or hiking a trail.
