About Us
Empowering the Innovators of Tomorrow
We exist for one reason: turn big “What if…?” moments into “Watch this!” reality.
At FIA, kids don’t just learn STEM—they live it. Every course is a fast-moving, hands-on adventure where students design, wire, code, and test real projects that solve real problems. No stale lectures, no fluff—just the thrill of making something that works (or breaks, then works even better).
Our mission: ignite the next wave of innovators, thinkers, and leaders by giving them pro-level tools, expert mentors, and permission to fail forward. Because the future belongs to the brave—and brave starts here.

Andi Sperry, the heart and soul behind The Future Innovators Academy, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to our academy. With a Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering and a Master’s in Nuclear Engineering from the esteemed University of California, Berkeley, Andi's academic credentials are just the start. Her professional journey includes pivotal roles in pioneering robotic space missions at NASA Goddard Space Center, contributing to groundbreaking Shock Physics Research at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and driving innovation in the Hydrogen energy industry as a Test and Development Engineer. Despite her demanding career, Andi's true passion lies in educating and empowering young minds, leading her to establish and run FIA.
Why Pick Future Innovators Academy?
​Because cookie-cutter classes don’t build world-changers.
Personal, not crowded. Our micro-sized groups mean instructors actually know every student’s name—and how to push their curiosity to the next level.
Hands on the latest tech. 3D printers, AI toolkits, pro-grade robotics gear—if engineers use it, our kids get to tinker with it.
Challenge that feels like play. Projects are tough enough to spark grit, fun enough to keep goggles fog-free, and relevant enough to solve problems that matter.
Fail-forward culture. Mistakes are a feature, not a bug. We celebrate them, debug them, and level up together.
Choose FIA and watch your young innovator trade “I can’t” for “What’s next?”—one epic build at a time.
