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.

I love to explore ideas by drawing every possibility that comes to my mind. I also love coffee, reading, playing video games, and making stamps.
I’m currently studying Product and Transportation Design, where I get to explore how to create new and exciting ideas—and turn them into real things people can use. I’ve always been a curious person with a big interest in both art and technology. I’m originally from Mexico, and I’m passionate about designing creative solutions that make everyday life better.
One of my main goals is to design products that benefit the environment—like sustainable products and innovations that use biomaterials to reduce waste and support a healthier planet.
I come from a multicultural background, and moving to various countries in my life has made my industrial design work encompass diverse personas. Growing up multilingual has helped me communicate more effectively through art and design, building community through my work. I bring that same spirit of connection and curiosity into every project I take on, designing with empathy and a genuine excitement for people's ideas.
I'm a Product Design student at Edinburgh Napier University.
I’m an industrial designer, which means I come up with ideas for everyday products and figure out how to turn them into real things you can use. I sketch, build models, and work with teams to design items that look good, feel great, and solve problems—like kitchen tools, toys, or gadgets. My job is a mix of creativity and problem-solving, kind of like being an inventor and an artist at the same time!
