nevin & teddy

presidents & senior teaching staff

Peninsula Robotics was founded by high school seniors Nevin Pai and Teddy Mendonca in 2022 who observed how disparate access to opportunities was for themselves compared to those that lived only a few miles away, leading them to want to help resolve that inequity. Nevin attends Los Altos High School in Los Altos, California while Teddy attends Hillsdale High. Both Nevin and Teddy have an extensive background in robotics, being members of KIPR Botball teams since middle school and taking up computer science and engineering as their passions. Together, they have organized the project, planned the program and are excited to teach attendees.
