Hailing from San Lorenzo California, meet Shihb Altareb (he/him)! 🌊📷He is a 3rd year Mechanical Engineering Major with a minor in Biomedical Engineering.🩺⚙️ His favorite tool is the angle grinder because it mesmerizes you with all the sparks it throws around.📐✨ If he was running for president, his slogan would be PLEASE I NEED THIS.🧎🙏😭 If Shihb was stuck on a desert island, he’d want to be with Diego since they are both brain rotted.🥀🪫 He rides a green bike which he converted to a single speed with zip ties.🤐🤑 Outside of the barn, Shihb likes watching movies, taking photos with his camera and repairing watches.📸⌚️🧑‍🔧 If he was to start a bike barn band, he’d call back to his experience playing drums in the 6th grade.🥁🤘 Shihb’s favorite part of working at the barn is the fun environment, cool people, and interesting conversations on the shop floor.🗜️🧙 His favorite barn memory is crashing a bike on his first week working here and sitting on the front of the omnium cargo bike.💥🚴 Fun Fact! He also makes banana bread.🍌🥖 Drop by the Bike Barn to ask about his secret recipe 🤫🤫
