I am a high school student developing a 3D Printing startup for Microtia

Hey all! I'm a high school student launching an assistive technology initiative called Aurius Prosthetics. The purpose of this initiative is to design and 3D print custom and authentic prosthetic ears for people with microtia.

My goal is to make prosthetics both feel empowering and also more affordable. So far, I've printed several versions with different materials (PLA/TPU) , shapes, and textures. Each one is meant to be personalized and expressive.

I’m still early in the journey, but I’ve set up a both a GitHub and LinkedIn page to document progress and connect with mentors. If anyone’s interested in entrepreneurship, design, or turning personal experiences into impact, or simply want to follow along the journey— I’d love to connect!

Any feedback or advice appreciated and welcomed. 🙂
