Aron Máni Símonarson

I am a 20 year old male born and raised on a small island south of Iceland, Vestmannaeyjar

I still live on this beautiful island and currently work as an intern in Fab ou Vestmannaeyjar

I finished gymnasium in May 2015 after 3 years of studies and it was then when my Fab Lab journey began

I took three Fab Lab courses and one entrepreneurship course in my three years at the gymnasium.

Fab Lab Vestmannaeyjar manager Frosti Gíslason taught those classes and i decided to take part in Fab Academy 2016 after discussions with Frosti

My Fab Lab experience

Since i started my internship in Fab Lab Vestmannaeyjar i´ve had the privilege to visit other Fab Lab´s both in Iceland and abroad.

I visited Fab Lab Copenhagen in late August 2015, stayed there over one weekend and gained good experience

In November 2015 i travelled to Western Australia with my 2 friends and interns from our lab

We stayed there for about 5 weeks and studied at Fab Lab WA, located in Perth
