I’m Skylar Robinson, a passionate LEGO enthusiast and a senior at Fairchild Wheeler High School in the engineering program. I’m excited to collaborate with my friends Aaron Bouffard and Alex Roshenets to turn my LEGO dreams into reality.

My love affair with LEGO began when I was just two years old. Diagnosed with autism at that age, LEGO became more than just a toy; it was a therapeutic tool that allowed me to overcome obstacles and express my creativity.

At seven, a pivotal moment in my LEGO journey occurred when I won a nationwide LEGO contest with a video my dad submitted. This achievement led me to join a creative crew of young builders at Legoland in Yonkers, NY, where I worked alongside adult master builders. That experience solidified my passion and made me realize that LEGO building was my true calling.

By the age of eight, I was constructing the largest LEGO sets in record time. I thrive on challenges and spend countless hours perfecting my builds. My room is a testament to my dedication, filled wall-to-wall with LEGO creations. The sense of accomplishment I get from building is something I want to share with other LEGO enthusiasts.

Together with my team, I’m creating a space where LEGO builders can come together to be creative, make friends, and showcase their skills. Our club, Brick Fusion, is a relaxed, non-judgmental environment where anyone who loves building can feel welcome and valued. My vision is to grow this club into a thriving community for LEGO enthusiasts.

In addition to my LEGO pursuits, I started my own brand, “Sky’s The Limit,” when I was nine years old. I sell T-shirts and hats with my logo to fund my LEGO passion. Beyond LEGO, I’m also a collector of Nintendo plushies and have a keen interest in drawing and creating animations. My ultimate dream is to work for LEGO and join their design team.

I am immensely grateful to my family and friends for their unwavering support throughout my journey. 

Join me and the Brick Fusion Club, where everyone feels safe, valued, and inspired to create. 

Let’s build a community where the sky is truly the limit!

Hey, I’m Alex Roshenets, a Junior at Bridgeport Aquaculture and Fairfield Ludlowe High School. I’m fluent in Russian and am learning Spanish and Ukrainian. Ever since I was a child, LEGO has been a big part of my creative expression and development as a thinker, artist, and creator.

I grew up around art. My father is an artist who studied in Saint Petersburg, Russia and has always helped me on my creative journey, especially with LEGO. Some of my fondest childhood memories involve listening to children’s audiobooks while building something out of LEGO for hours. It helped me connect with other kids my age, as I had trouble making friends, and LEGO was a great way to bond over a common interest. I also love engineering, and as a kid, LEGO allowed me to bring my ideas to life, especially when I didn't have the tools or supplies to build them. I would make functioning Beyblades, fidget spinners, Nerf guns, and puzzles, all with the help of LEGO. It’s taught me about love, acceptance, and the value of staying true to your inner child.

Even to this day, LEGO has helped me with my endeavors in life. It’s improved my fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, which is great for when I’m writing and performing songs for my band, or performing complicated chemistry experiments and dissecting animals at Aquaculture. I think that LEGO brings the world together and lets kids be kids, despite economic adversity, bullying, and other issues they might face.

I strongly believe in Brick Fusion’s goal and hope that I can help your kids be social, have fun, and create art with new and old friends. It will help them be creative and stimulate their brains, all while learning social skills and other important skills that will aid them later in life.
