Rick Bresnahan

A black and white head shot of Rick Bresnahan smiling, with a beard.

Rick Bresnahan was raised in Maine, returning in 2021 to join the state’s burgeoning startup community as a Product Design Engineer at Hawkin Dynamics in Westbrook. After receiving a degree in Neuropsychology from Brown University, he became interested in how human perception informs the principles of outstanding product design, earned a Mechanical Engineering Master’s from Boston University, and has since been working in engineering design at various northeast startups. He hopes to bring his years of experience to bear on improvements to SPACE in collaboration with the interests of the wider Portland arts community. Rick is serving his first term on the SPACE Board through winter 2025/26.
