MY Work • A BRIEF MIX OF CREATIVE-TECH PROJECTS—RECENT AND PAST
A Few of My Projects
Developed years ago, the groundbreaking African American Inventions Series, an interactive multimedia CD-ROM showcasing 12 early inventions by African American inventors from 1845–1980. Featured 3D animated recreations of inventions, inventor biographies, a quiz game, and a complimentary list of over 400 Black inventors. Secured corporate sponsorship from Colgate-Palmolive Company, which distributed the CD-ROM as part of its Black History promotional campaign, further amplifying its educational and cultural impact.
Helping educators and parents integrate untold Black inventor histories to inspire kids with real-world innovation and legacy. Step into a forgotten chapter of American innovation. Richly illustrated books that bring to life stories and inventions of African Americans. And meet Henry E. Baker, the man who created a historic list of over 400 African American inventions.
