Dakota Midday: New Makerspace In Aberdeen

Travis Kiefer is the founder of a new makerspace in Aberdeen called CREATE. Kiefer is a South Dakota kid who went on to the Ivy League and Silicon Valley, returned home to invest in the city of Aberdeen and in future ideas and innovations, and imagined a stronger connection between technology and elder care.
