About the Instructor

Hello! I’m Ryder Klein, a senior at Liberty High School in Renton, Washington. My passion for engineering and design has grown through my experience in robotics, where I’ve led the creation and design of four competition robots using CAD. I’m excited to share what I’ve learned and help others discover how powerful and creative CAD can be. Can’t wait to see you on the front lines of learning one of the coolest skills in the world — CAD!

Here’s what CAD For Kidz students have to say!

I loved the beginning OnShape course I took from CAD for Kidz. I learned all the basic skills that allow me to design simple 3D objects all on my own. Thanks Ryder!
