This MIX Podcast episode discusses the benefits hobbies have on confidence, motivation, success and creativity at work with GMU Costello College of Business Professor Michael Allen King. Prof. King discusses his love for model rocketry and how it has broadened his community, allowed him to give back to the larger community and boosted his motivation, confidence and creativity in his profession. At the root of his passion for model rocketry lies the MIX - Mason Innovation Exchange, a Makerspace/Media Lab accessible to Mason undergraduate, graduate students, staff, and faculty to use for purposes of design, fabrication, and realization of academic projects and passion projects of all sizes and levels of complexity. Dr. King shares his view on the MIX and its value in supporting his passion and learning surrounding his hobby.
