3D Printing
Easy breezy 3D thingies. Covering all the basics, troubleshooting, tips & tricks.
Technology.
Education.
Creativity.
I’ve created this website to help others learn technology and use it in creative ways simply & easily, without all that tech jargon.
… and because I struggled hard to find what I needed when searching for solutions myself.

Welcome to techWithRita.
My goal is to help make technology more easily understood to the world, to make it a comfortable subject to think and talk about, and to help people realize & enjoy the benefits that come with incorporating technology into our lives.
There are so many worries, misconceptions and misunderstandings about technology today that make some avoid it at all costs. This website is where I will post helpful information going over topics of web development, electronics, 3D printing, and easy-to-follow STEM projects which incorporate all of these things.
