The idea for CalRobo came from their desire to create innovative classes to introduce young children to robotics. Mr. Ching, a tech enthusiast, developed an early interest in technology and engineering growing up with a father who designed video games. This developed into a passion which he has continued to pursue to this day, taking many engineering classes in middle and high school. He has integrated this interest into CalRobo and hopes to spread this passion to children. In his free time, you can find him tinkering with computers and electronics, playing basketball, practicing violin, or reading graphic novels. https://www.calrobo.com/will daily 0.75 2021-01-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff64089aa444278595c8da0/1610409844001-7OWLJPRRXB8U7F2QTKA1/willB.a400d57f.jpeg Will - Will Bennett / Co-Founder Will Bennett and Owen Ching, his co-founder, have worked and studied together for the past three years and were excited to finally launch their new project, CalRobo. Mr. Bennett has a passion for studying business, and when he heard about this idea of a robotics group, he immediately knew that it would be a wonderful opportunity for both future students and him. With Mr. Ching’s help, Mr. Bennett has established a clear vision for this company. With robotics being an under-taught subject in the American school system, he strongly believes that this is the best way to expand children’s horizons and prepare for the future as robotics are becoming the future of the next big tech companies. While Mr. Bennett is not working on this project, he enjoys playing sports, and reading books about business and finances. Sometimes, you can even catch him at the beach near San Francisco or spending time at home with his family. https://www.calrobo.com/keith daily 0.75 2021-01-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff64089aa444278595c8da0/1610079499299-RF0KMDNIMU1V206K38FX/8408716c-cbd6-4681-8887-1bf13c0ee023%2521.jpg Keith - Keith Nare / Director of Communications Keith Nare is a technology enthusiast who has worked with robotics for measurement of road construction.
