That's a really good point and perspective. I would say that I am interested in solving a specific problem or serving a specific use case by improving what already exists (making it better using) through the process of building solutions (being a maker). Would that be more clear?

In a way, it sounds like you're looking for a way to label yourself, give yourself an identity.

But I think you're trying to use generic high level language to describe your personal, specific niche. It doesn't really communicate anything.

Looking at your submission from yesterday, and your product submission, it sounds like you want to make products, and market them so they are successful, so you are successful. But this focus on finding a superfluous label doesn't seem like it's going to help you get there.
