We’re excited to share that Nakeisha Washington, founder of Nyla Nova STEMversity®, recently appeared as a guest on The Own Your Brand Show podcast—an inspiring platform that shines a light on entrepreneurs and changemakers building meaningful brands.

In this special episode, Nakeisha opens up about how Nyla Nova STEMversity® is transforming STEM education for young learners, especially girls of color. From activity books designed for toddlers to immersive community adventures, family programs, and hands-on STEM kits, Nakeisha’s vision is to make STEM accessible, fun, and empowering from as early as age three.

The Own Your Brand Show, hosted by Victoria Odekomaya, focuses on authentic conversations and strategic storytelling to help business owners grow their brand and legacy. This episode highlights how Nyla Nova STEMversity® is creating a one-of-a-kind ecosystem that connects STEM learning to real-world experiences, community engagement, and family involvement.

Nakeisha shares exciting initiatives like the STEM van—a mobile STEM lab that brings hands-on learning directly to schools and neighborhoods that may lack access. She also talks about how manufacturing STEM kits locally in Indiana helps keep these resources affordable and sustainable, making it easier for kids across the nation to participate.

Her mission? To build what she affectionately calls the “Disney of STEM”—a vibrant, inclusive space where kids can discover the magic of science, technology, engineering, and math while building confidence and curiosity.
