Colonia · Henry Inman Branch Library
Snap Circuits · Colonia
Build a circuit. See it work.
A free, hands-on electricity and engineering workshop for children ages 7–13 at Henry Inman Branch Library in Colonia. Students use snap-together components to build working circuits and explore the technology behind everyday devices.
Students explore
- Electricity and working circuits
- Safe, tool-free building with Snap Circuits
- Engineering through hands-on experimentation
Past workshops & results
Fanwood Memorial Library
Marshmallow Tower STEM Challenge
Build tall. Test. Improve.
Students designed and built towers with marshmallows, spaghetti, and toothpicks. They explored geometry, balance, and stability, then measured their towers and refined their designs through testing.
Students explored
- Stability, balance, and structural geometry
- The engineering design process
- Teamwork, communication, and creative problem-solving
Build a LEGO City
Plan, build, and connect a city.
Students designed buildings, bridges, roads, parks, and neighborhoods, then combined their projects into one collaborative LEGO city. They explored urban planning, transportation, balance, stability, and sustainable design.
Students explored
- Urban planning, zoning, and transportation
- Architecture, spatial reasoning, balance, and stability
- Teamwork, sustainability, and creative problem-solving
SCRATCH Coding Workshop
Creative coding in action.
Young learners used Scratch to build interactive stories, games, and animations while learning coding fundamentals in a collaborative setting.
Students explored
- Loops, variables, events, and logical thinking
- Interactive stories and animations
- Simple game design and creative problem-solving
LEGO Bridge Building Workshop
How strong can LEGO be?
Students designed, built, and tested LEGO bridges while exploring strength, balance, structural design, creativity, and teamwork.
Young engineers followed the process: Imagine → Plan → Create → Experiment → Improve.
Students explored
- Bridge decks, trusses, supports, and load paths
- Balance, stability, and structural strength
- Testing, collaboration, and iterative improvement
Let's Light Things Up and Make Sound!
Engineering sound and light.
Students explored the basics of electricity through mini challenges, then worked in groups to build projects with lights, switches, motors, speakers, and fans.
Students explored
- Building working snap-together circuits
- Connecting lights, switches, motors, speakers, and fans
- How electricity powers everyday technology

The Real Temp
The Real Temp turns a complicated weather report into a clear picture of what it actually feels like outside—and what matters next. I founded, designed, and developed the product from its first idea through its live web experience.

How it works
- Choose a place.Search by city or ZIP code, use your current location, or open a saved Home, Work, or pinned location.
- See the essentials first.The dashboard leads with the feels-like temperature, conditions, and forecast so the answer is easy to understand at a glance.
- Go deeper when needed.Open individual tiles for hourly and five-day forecasts, humidity, wind, air quality, UV, pollen, and weather-map details.
Built around the user
- Practical outdoor and clothing guidance
- Customizable, rearrangeable dashboard tiles
- Temperature and wind-unit preferences
- Light, dark, and system appearance options

RoadSeal
An autonomous robot concept designed to identify roadway cracks and apply sealant. The goal is to address cracks before water intrusion and winter freeze-thaw cycles can worsen them into potholes.

AI Implementation on Microcontrollers
A research paper exploring how machine learning models can run locally on microcontroller hardware. The study presents an applied approach to deploying these models and examines opportunities for TinyML in healthcare, smart agriculture, and industrial predictive maintenance, alongside the need for open-source datasets and standardized benchmarks.
