Mandy Bunnell
Mandy Bunnell is the “mom” of the family maker-team, Randomocity Makers! Mandy works as a professional project manager and process improvement expert. She graduated Winthrop University in 1999 with a BS in Biology, and earned a Six Sigma Black Belt Certification from NCSU in 2003. Mandy is drawn to all things crafty, but especially enjoys sewing! She loves designing many of her projects from scratch: sketching ideas, drawing patterns, deciding on materials, and preparing the pieces and parts. She strives to incorporate her love for color and whimsy in her projects, and enjoys the challenge of using old materials in new ways. Mandy is currently into designing and sewing block-style animals (inspired by video games like MineCraft), and turning discarded cotton shirts into cozy quilts. Also, her training in project management, problem solving, process improvement and efficiency design is perfect for her role as the official "Chaos Coordinator" for the Randomocity Makers family!
