Founding Team Background

Founder and CEO, Daniel Barenboym, previously ran an after-school STEAM company. Daniel said, “I saw something unique. Kids’ love for learning. Parents know how hard it can be to motivate kids, but when it happens, they learn at an amazing pace, and give it their all. I also often heard parents who were unable to afford an activity or get their kids to it. I want kids to be inspired by by experiences in their childhood.”
