Hi there my name is Kedar!
From a young age I have always loved nature, computer science, and inventing. When I was 5 years old my mom said the Wii broke but I could learn to code my own games! I started with a program called Scratch by MIT and soon learned to make apps and websites. At 6 years of age, I started going to inventor gatherings called Maker Faires to teach people how to code!
One day I met a librarian called Mr. Patrick who challenged me to teach code to the visually challenged community. I created a board game called StoriBot which won the Chitag Young Inventor Award in 2015 has been featured on the Steve Harvey Show called Little Big Shots.
I gave a TedX talk on how games can change our communities..

My first app was called 'Pollinator for a Pet' a game to teach people about the environment and current issues about the pollinators such as bees, birds, butterflies, moths, beetles, wasps, bats and much much more. It won first place in my age category at the Paradigm Challenge and was also recognized by the National Wildlife Federation.
I wanted to keep helping the pollinators so I started my business: https://heartforwildlife.com/ an online store that sells environment friendly educational crafts and games and teaches people about Pollinator gardening.
My favorite things include playing basketball, nerding about math problems, playing chess and Dungeons and Dragons, binge reading Percy Jackson and thinking about interesting ideas like space and science!
Thank you for reading my bio :)
