I'm a mechanical designer, I like building things. . . . The offer was very attractive. Madhani joined Disney's senior research and development staff in 1997. Although none of his projects has yet been completed and installed, he finds his work satisfying. Twelve years of engineering school doesn't hurt either, because then they tend to let you do more complicated things, and you have some of the tools needed to do them, but that just makes it more fun. .
Invention is a lot more incremental than people like to make it sound.
