Lindsey Bezek
Lindsey graduated from Virginia Tech in 2017 with Bachelor’s degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Music: vocal performance. A member of the DREAMS lab since the summer of 2014, she has conducted research with both binder jetting and material jetting systems. She has been recognized with the “Best Poster Award” at the 2015 International Solid Freeform Fabrication Symposium for her conference paper. Lindsey was also a member of the 2016-17 DREAMS lab senior design team that designed and built the DREAM Machine, a first of its kind multi-tool AM system. A recipient of the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship, Lindsey is now pursuing a Ph.D. with a focus in material jetting. Her current research project is a multi-disciplinary collaboration involving multi-material jetting of realistic, structural heart models.
Outside of Virginia Tech, she has conducted AM research at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). She is also actively involved with the music ministry for her church choir at Virginia Tech.
