About Us

STEMVillage was founded by brothers Joseph and Will Phelps, united by a shared passion for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) and a mission to inspire the next generation of innovators.

Joseph’s journey began in high school, where he stood out as a leader and changemaker. A 2024 Bank of America Student Leader and National Economics Challenge Champion, Joseph also interned at Morgan State University and led impactful initiatives like WEngineer. His drive to create STEM opportunities was deeply personal—he was inspired by his younger brother, Will, and his wish to provide the kind of engaging STEM programs that didn’t exist when Will was younger. Fueled by this vision, Joseph developed camps and workshops that have reached over 1,600 students, offering hands-on learning and sparking curiosity in STEM fields.

Will’s passion for STEM has been evident since an early age, showcased by his success in MESA competitions and his excitement for tackling engineering challenges. Both a student and an inspiration for STEMVillage’s mission, Will embodies the creativity and curiosity the brothers aim to instill in others.

Together, Joseph and Will are building a legacy of fostering innovation, empowering youth, and ensuring every child has the opportunity to explore and love STEM.
