Hi! My name is Sienna and I am the founder of R.I.S.E and currently a junior in high school. Throughout my high school career I been fortunate to have taken classes in programming, engineering, and computer science. My school has provided me wonderful opportunities to further explore my interest in Computer Science. With that, I’m excited about expanding access to STEM education because I want to inspire younger students to get involved early and discover their own interests in these fields. With R.I.S.E, my goal is to create opportunities that encourage and support students of all backgrounds to explore STEM.

We believe that with the right resources, support, and opportunities, every student can RISE to their full potential and help create a better world for us all.

Our club aims to provide weekly STEM kits to youth in our local community. These kits offer hands-on learning experiences that make science and technology accessible, engaging, and fun.

These kits will include essential components such as breadboards, LEDs, wires, buttons, resistors, buzzers, and Elegoo® UNO R3 Micro-controller boards. These materials offer hands-on learning experiences that make technology accessible, engaging, and fun.
