Hello, I'm
Sage Dutcher.
Capable hands.
Curious mind. Warm heart.
I like having responsibility and learning how to do something well. I've handled traveling service assignments on my own, worked on aircraft and led a team. I'm looking for interesting work where I can put that experience to use and keep learning.

My own projectsComputers & this website
Planned and built a liquid-cooled computer, including tubing I bent by hand. This site is another project: my domain, photos and direction, with AI helping me develop it.

I like having more than one thing to be interested in. Books, music, hiking and building things are all part of my life. Travel is another. I've visited 40 states and 12 countries, and I'd like to see more.
