Meet The Team

Avni A

Founder

Avni is a passionate individual who loves engineering and enjoys working with children. As captain and only female on her FTC robotics team and only female officer in her school robotics club, she has experienced gender discrepancy and discrimination in STEM first-hand and is committed to making a difference. She hopes to motivate girls and change mindsets so that no young girl has to hear the words “she can’t do it” about their passion.
