My Project

Helping my diverse group of students learn to design, build, 3d print, wire, code, and create their very own robotic arms, self driving cars, battle bots, and more all from scratch. through fun, engaging, and difficult Engineering Challenges in our Physical Computing Class my students challenge themselves, learn to overcome obstacles, and express their creativity in new ways they've never been able to. Our power supplies will allow our creations to go mobile and be demonstrated all over our community. These are the future builders, coders, and engineers of tomorrow!
