My journey into inventing started when I was just 12 years old. Growing up in the 90s, I was inspired by Steve Urkel from the hit show "Family Matters." Seeing someone who looked like me creating amazing inventions sparked something inside me - I realized that I too could invent solutions to everyday problems.
That inspiration led me to compete in my middle school's annual Invention Competition, where I won 1st place! That moment changed everything. I knew from then on that inventing wasn't just a hobby - it was my calling.
I went on to graduate from Cheyney University in 2007 with a degree in Business Marketing, combining my passion for innovation with the business skills to bring ideas to life. After years of developing my craft, I received my first patent in 2021 for The Wander Ring - a mobile photobooth that brings joy and memories to any event.
Along the way, I've invented various tabletop games like TOP 5 Flip, always looking for creative ways to bring people together and make everyday experiences more fun.
"To inspire the next generation of inventors. Just like Steve Urkel showed me that someone who looked like me could be an inventor, I want to show young people everywhere that they have the power to create, innovate, and solve problems that matter. Every child has an inventor inside them - my job is to help them discover it."
"Every child is born an inventor. My job is just to remind them of their superpowers!"

Let's Build Together!Here are the most common questions parents ask about our robot-building classes. Don't see your question? Just give us a call!
Perfect! That's exactly who our classes are designed for. We start with the absolute basics and guide every child step-by-step. Our age-appropriate kits are specifically chosen so that complete beginners can build amazing robots and feel proud of their achievements. In fact, some of our most enthusiastic builders started with zero experience!
Absolutely! We bring everything needed for the class - robot kits, tools, batteries, instruction materials, and even backup components. You don't need to buy or prepare anything. Just provide the space and excited kids! Each child takes home their completed robot at the end of the session.
No problem! We can easily move indoors to a garage, basement, living room, or any covered area with a table. Our classes are designed to work in any space. If severe weather makes it unsafe to travel, we'll reschedule at no extra charge - your satisfaction is guaranteed!
Adults are welcome to observe and encourage! While the class is designed for kids ages 6-12, parents often enjoy watching and learning alongside their children. For adult-child team building, we offer special "Family Builder" sessions where parents and kids work together on more complex projects. Just let us know when booking!
We recommend 2-3 weeks for best availability, especially for weekend sessions and birthday parties. However, we often have last-minute openings! Give us a call and we'll do our best to accommodate your schedule. For holiday parties and summer camps, booking 4-6 weeks ahead ensures your preferred dates.
Safety is our #1 priority! All components are age-appropriate with no sharp edges or dangerous parts. We use low-voltage batteries (3V max), child-safe tools, and provide constant supervision. I'm fully insured and background-checked. Every activity follows strict safety protocols while still being engaging and educational.
Everything is included - no surprises! The price covers instruction, all materials, robot kits, tools, travel to your location, setup, cleanup, and each child keeps their robot. The only additional cost might be travel fees for locations over 25 miles from our base, which we'll discuss upfront during booking.
We understand life happens! You can reschedule up to 48 hours before your session at no charge. For cancellations, we offer full refunds with 72+ hours notice, and 50% refunds with 24-48 hours notice. Same-day cancellations due to illness or emergencies are handled case-by-case - we're very understanding!
Yes we do! Our virtual classes are perfect for remote learning, homeschoolers, or families who prefer online instruction. We ship the complete robot kit to your door before class starts. Then join us on Zoom for live, interactive instruction with small groups (max 12 students). You get the same quality hands-on experience, just from the comfort of home!
We use professional-grade tools and real engineering principles! Unlike programs that use basic snap-together toys, we teach with Arduino boards, genuine motors, and real sensors. Kids learn actual programming (not just drag-and-drop) and mechanical engineering. Plus, our mobile service means we come to YOU - your home, school, or venue. Small group sizes (15-25 max) ensure personal attention. And kids keep everything they build!
Absolutely! Summer 2026 registration is now open! We offer week-long day camps (Monday-Friday, 9 AM - 3 PM) throughout June, July, and August. Kids build 5 different robots during the week, with a showcase competition on Friday. Camps are $495 per week (Early Bird: $450 before May 1st). Limited to 15 campers per week. Multiple themes available from beginner to advanced levels. Extended care available before/after camp hours.
We keep groups intentionally small for quality instruction! Our ideal group size is 15-25 students for in-person classes and maximum 12 for virtual classes. This ensures every child gets personal attention, help when needed, and time to ask questions. For birthday parties, we recommend 8-15 kids for the best experience. Smaller groups mean better learning outcomes and more fun for everyone!
