Meet our Magnificent Makers
Little Inventors wants children to open their eyes to the world of invention and creativity. But beyond the invention drawings, there is a unique opportunity for children and makers, designers and artists to come together and collaborate to bring children’s imagination to life.
By taking children’s ideas seriously and presenting them in a professional manner through collaboration with skilled makers, we will help showcase children’s original ideas, perspectives and voices.
We also want to challenge the skills and experience of adult makers, and encourage them to push beyond their own limits by engaging with the highly imaginative and unhindered minds of young children.

L&L Products brings deep expertise in applied engineering, materials science, and global manufacturing to turn ideas into real, functional products. The company specializes in designing, testing, and producing customized material solutions—combining advanced engineering, prototyping, and scalable manufacturing processes to create innovations that are lighter, stronger, and built to perform in the real world. We're excited to work with our Little Inventor to also bring their idea to life!
With a background in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Michigan and Product Design from The College for Creative Studies, I'm a huge fan of innovations that unite form and function. Currently I'm implementing my technical prowess and passion for CMF at Milwaukee Tool as an Industrial Designer on the Mechanics Hand Tools and Marking Expansion teams.
