She started off as a scribbled stick figure.
I fashioned her frizzy hair and passionate advocacy for creativity after the first woman scientist I met, Aditi Chandra. Her large glasses rested on her nose, just like my math teacher who taught me to question everything I encountered. She zoomed around on rollerblades, an ode to my brother and I’s cardboard inventions which would defy gravity. Every time I found myself discouraged from engineering, I added more zeal.
Now alive, Kiara inspires other young girls to build their own machines.
We are a small business dedicated to providing an engaging and innovative STEM education, whilst simultaneously increasing women role models in STEM for students. Our goal is simple: to transform science education.
Meet our Founder, Isha Jain
Hello! I am currently a student in Grade 12 at The British School, in New Delhi. I am a strong advocate for increasing inclusivity within STEM, and modeled Kiara, the main character in this kit, off of different inspiring women I have interacted with. This toy is something I wish I had when I was growing up myself, and I hope to be able to inspire more children to pursue Science through it. I hope to pursue Bioengineering in the future and create many more kits!
