GAAR teams with UNM to bring award-winning STEM teacher and motivational speaker to ABQ

As part of the 2016 REinvent Speaker Series, GAAR once again brings a national speaker to the Duke City to motivate Realtors and help inspire the community that supports our businesses.

For the final REinvent, GAAR is working with University of New Mexico to bring Fredi Lajvardi to our city. Fredi is a nationally recognized STEM educator and subject of the critically acclaimed documentary, Underwater Dreams, and major motion picture, Spare Parts (which stared George Lopez and was filmed right here in ABQ).

A celebrated STEM educator, he transformed a group of underprivileged high school students into a national champion robotics team that defeated MIT. Through his presentation, Improbable to Unstoppable, Mr. Lajvardi offers valuable insight on embracing diversity, fostering teamwork to solve complex problems, and the importance of investing in people.

With humor and passion, Lajvardi reveals the simple secrets to his national champion robotics team's unprecedented success, and imparts to audiences the same wisdom, spirit of inventiveness, and determination that transformed an improbable group of disadvantaged Hispanic teenagers into an unstoppable national powerhouse.  His heartfelt presentation captures the imagination, maximizes potential, and sparks the creativity in all of us.

Please join us for this great motivational event and invite your clients, friends and family.
