Inventor & STEM Educator bringing the magic of robot building to kids throughout Philadelphia

The Wander Ring (2021)
Making STEM fun & accessible for everyone
Growing up, I was the kid who took apart everything in the house to see how it worked (much to my parents' frustration!). By age 10, I was building my own remote control cars and experimenting with electronics. That curiosity never left me.
I went on to graduate from Cheyney University with a degree in Business Administration / Marketing, combining my passion for innovation with the skills to bring ideas to life. But I discovered something even more exciting than inventing itself: teaching kids to build and invent.
While volunteering at a local elementary school, I watched a shy 8-year-old girl's face light up when her robot moved for the first time. She whispered, "I made that! I'm an inventor!"
That moment changed everything. I realized that hands-on building wasn't just about teaching STEM—it was about building confidence, problem-solving skills, and showing kids they can create anything they imagine.
I went on to launch Stevie The Inventor and received my first patent in 2021 for The Wander Ring, a mobile photobooth that brings joy and memories to any event. My mission was simple: bring high-quality, hands-on robotics education directly to kids—no fancy facilities needed, just passion and a van full of robot parts!
Today, I've taught over 2,500 kids throughout the Philadelphia area, and I've personally witnessed thousands of "inventor moments" just like that first girl. Every single one reminds me why I do this.
Every child can be an inventor. Here's how I make it happen.
I believe kids learn best by doing, not just watching. From minute one, students are building, testing, failing, and improving. That's where real learning happens.
"I never just hand them the answer. I guide them to discover it themselves."
If kids aren't having fun, they're not engaged. I use games, challenges, and friendly competitions to keep energy high and creativity flowing. Learning should feel like play.
"When a kid says 'This doesn't feel like school!', I know I'm doing it right."
I keep groups small (max 20 students) so every child gets personal attention. Whether they're a beginner or advanced, shy or outgoing, I meet them where they are.
"No child is left behind or bored. I differentiate instruction for every learner."
When a robot doesn't work, that's not failure—it's feedback. I teach kids that mistakes are the best teachers and persistence beats perfection every time.
"Every 'failure' brings us one step closer to success. That's engineering!"
