STEAMsport, Inc. is a 501-C3 non-profit organization that aims to provide Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) exposure, education, and competition to youth living in underserved communities.
Our goal is to break the cycle of generational poverty through accessible and effective STEAM programming that will open the doors to post-secondary educational opportunities and STEAM-related careers.
STEAMsport, Inc. began as a group of 5 public housing students wanting to learn how to program robots. This led to weekly learning sessions and ultimately the students competing in the FIRST LEGO League Robotics Competition in 2010. As the students began to apply hands-on learning, their interest and attitude toward STEAM concepts increased along with their math and science grades.
Since 2010
STEAMsport, Inc. has engaged students in STEAM learning in the following cities:
I am thrilled to have completed my Associate's degree in Healthcare Management at Chattahoochee Technical College at the age of 15 in December 2023. However, I am also feeling a bit nervous as I prepare to return to school and pursue my bachelor's degree in Respiratory Therapy at Middle Georgia State University.
I am currently chasing my dream and achieving my goals on my path to medicine. Working on my master's in Neuroscience at the Georgia State University. After which I will pursue my MD or nursing degree. I cannot complain about the position I have worked to achieve thus far.
It was very fun! I remember going to the John Hope Community Center in high school and learning new web development concepts. It was extremely helpful to have knowledgeable volunteers because what they helped me to learn are the foundation of concepts I use as a web developer today.
