Our Origin Story

I’ve always been fascinated by how people and technology connect; psychology, robotics, AI, all of it. Over time, that curiosity grew into a bigger mission: creating space for people who often get left out, including minority groups, underrepresented communities, and those from lower socio-economic backgrounds.

But there’s another side of me that never stopped tinkering. The part that loves circuit boards, sensors, and the hum of a servo motor. I missed having a space to share that curiosity, to explore robotics, AI, and the future of tech in a way that invites others in, not just those who already have access.

That’s why I started Tinkimo.

Tinkimo's purpose is simple: to inspire the roboticists, coders, and dreamers of tomorrow. The goal is to build an open, collaborative platform that helps students learn the basics of robotics, software, AI, and control through hands-on play, affordable tools, and open-source resources.

Imagine schools across the country building and programming their own robots, sharing designs, and competing in friendly challenges. A space where learning feels like discovery, and where background or budget doesn’t define who gets to take part.

If you're a teacher, technologist, or tinkerer who believes in this vision I'd love to connect. Let's make robotics education open to everyone.
