About Me

Keaten Tuttle

Cal Poly SLO Mechanical Engineering graduate with a Business Entrepreneurship minor. I'm a passionate person who works hard to make a difference — whether that's designing a solar concentrator, building a sleeping platform for my Subaru, or writing Python scripts that automate real-world tasks.

I believe the best engineers move fluidly between the physical and digital worlds. I'm equally comfortable with a SolidWorks model, a woodworking bench, and a terminal window.
