About Jarrel Byer
Master Inventor • Product Developer • Founder of Invention Skills
I’m Jarrel Byer, an independent inventor from Trinidad & Tobago, and the creator of original products like the PopCard Wallet and a precision-engineered rolling tray with built-in grinding studs. I design, prototype, test, and refine my own products — and I teach invention development as a real skill anyone can master.
My Journey Into Inventing
My commitment to mastering skills started early. In 2013, I began studying how motivation, mindfulness, flow state, and natural strengths combine to create high-level performance.
I graduated secondary school with strong grades in Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Mathematics, Business, English, and Literature, then continued into pre-med studies. There, I completed the full theoretical coursework in Anatomy, Physiology, Cardiology, Neuroscience, and Psychology. This deep understanding of the brain and human behavior later became a major advantage in my invention work.
I also studied Practical Prototyping and Manufacturing Processes within a Design & Manufacturing Engineering program, building the hands-on skills I now use daily.
How Inventing Became My Path
I’ve always been drawn to visual thinking and problem-solving. When I discovered inventing, it felt natural. I learned how imagination is rooted in real brain structures like the occipital and frontal lobes — the visual and strategic centers — and I used that knowledge to design better products.
For years, I studied:
Patent structure and intellectual property
Manufacturing and materials
Retail product behavior
Best-selling product analysis
User experience and design psychology
I trained my mind to recognize why Product A wins and Product B doesn’t, and how to build products that give people real advantages.
This process led to:
The rolling tray with grinding studs (2019)
The PopCard Wallet, refined through multiple versions into its best form today
And many more inventions in development.
My Philosophy
A great invention should improve a real moment in someone’s daily life — even by 1%.
More comfort. More calm. More ease. More portability. More efficiency.
Better human outcomes.
I believe God designed us with the ability to grow our skills through repeated, meaningful work. With faith, intention, and the right method, we can produce better results than we ever expected.
Invention Skills: Helping Inventors Worldwide
Today, I run Invention Skills, where I help new and aspiring inventors turn ideas into real, ready-to-sell or ready-to-license products.
My services include:
Product prototyping
Manufacturer sourcing
Licensing preparation
Product evaluation & development
Manufacturing setup guidance
Patent-style idea formatting
Invention coaching
I also share behind-the-scenes content from my own invention journey, giving inventors a real look at how products are made from start to finish.
My Mission
To make invention development a common, learnable skill — and empower everyday people to create world-class products.
If you’re ready to start developing your ideas or leveling up your invention skills, you’re in the right place.
