Accomplishments

Sophie and Izzy, identical twins, are the Chief Design Officers of SOZY Pencils, a stationery company based in Los Angeles, CA. As rising 9th graders, they are most proud of their hero product, The Annotator, a pencil and highlighter in one. They designed it to make studying easier, as no such product existed. Outside of the stationery world and studying, they can be found on the tennis courts, or playing with their shih-tzu dog, Coco.
