Meet Madison Venables!

As a former educator, Madison thrives on collecting and analyzing data from students in our STEM camps nationwide. From Sphero driving bots to robot dogs, she tracks the stories behind the tech and the students who bring them to life! While she doesn’t work directly with students, Madison loves diving into the metrics that showcase the impact we’re making. 
 
This is what STEM at the Griffiss Institute can do—open doors to unexpected and exciting career paths!
