Nicholas may just be the next Thomas Edison. At the age of 13, he has more than twenty inventions. Nicholas says that his inventions are to “help pets, seniors, kids and everybody else.” He is a problem solver. When he sees a problem he looks for a solution. He puts his creativity to task, builds a prototype and tries it out. All of his inventions are then tested (he enlists his family, friends, and dog to make sure his prototypes work).
