Wichita Bionic Woman

Dr. Sondra Stieber has a PhD in Education and a PhD in Physics. As an Educator and Inspirational Speaker, she will share her experiences teaching math and physics in unique educational environments, including war zones and prison schools in developing countries. Following a near-fatal injury that resulted in her becoming an amputee, she emerged as an advocate and, interestingly, the world’s second known cyborg. Currently, she travels across the country to speak about upper limb prosthetics, particularly to disabled veterans and researchers. Sondra leverages her educational expertise and personal history to support at-risk youth by organizing summer science camps for underprivileged children in various locations throughout Kansas.
