Kids & Teens Instructors: Eva Carrender

DMA Instructor

Eva Carrender is a veritable LEGO Mindstorms expert who is dedicated to teaching.  As a co-founder of the Northern California FIRST LEGO League, she specializes in project development and succeeds in expanding the minds of her students in the areas of science and technology. 

Eva has worked for several years in industry including a 15-year stint at the legendary Palo Alto Research Center where she did web design, system administration, and forms design.

Her background as an instructor includes teaching LEGO Robotics at the Tech Museum of Innovation, an elementary grade substitute and Science Fair judge for Santa Clara County School District, a FIRST LEGO League coach, mentor, referee and emcee, and a FIRST Robotics mentor.  Eva says, “I get delighted when I see a student grasp a new concept.  It’s like watching them open a birthday present.”

In her spare time, Eva enjoys spending time with her two children going camping, doing costume design and photography.
