My Story

I’ve dealt with stress tics for most of my life—blinking hard, jerking my neck—habits I couldn’t control no matter how many times people told me to “just stop.” It made me feel alone and misunderstood. But through that struggle, I found purpose. Using the CAD and SolidWorks skills I developed through my school’s engineering pathway and robotics team, I started designing and 3D printing infinity cubes—small, foldable fidget tools that are discreet, satisfying, and easy to carry. I created them to help people like me, but quickly realized they could support anyone—kids with stress tics, students who have trouble focusing, or even those who just enjoy something to fidget with. What began as a personal solution became a way to help others, and to show that engineering can be used not just to build impressive machines, but to make small things that truly matter.
