  1. I just started as the STEM Education Advisor for Brilliant Star Magazine and I ran across this article. I tried to contact Chase to see if there were any developments since it was published to see if it would be worthwhile to highlight his innovation in the online version of the magazine, but his email address is no longer valid. Do you have another way to contact him?

    I might be able to help. I posted an update a couple of years after this article and you can see it here: https://www.engineeringforchange.org/news/a-teenage-inventor-upgrades-emergency-rescue-technology/

    And Chase (now Alexis) Lewis has a website with contact info here: https://www.alexislewisinventor.me/contact

    If you post something I’d love to see it if you wouldn’t mind sending the link. Good luck!
