FROM THE CEO:

 My first job at 20 years of age after graduating from electronics engineering school, cemented my love for discovery and an interest of AI and robots for the future.  I worked at Information International in Culver City, the company that created camera technology, electronics design, scanning and computer animation for Westworld Robots. 

I was fascinated about AI, Robots, not realizing this first job and my son Ed that was diagnosed with Schizophrenia, would inspire the founding of MindHeart Lab and the development of EduPal Robot.   

I never dreamed that I would someday be developing AI intelligent robots that could help kids.  I am so humbled to work with such a smart, innovative and passionate team.
