From Star Wars Creations to Walmart Shelves: FHU Student Kenyon Hope's Invention Lands Major Deal With Nation's Leading DIY Brand

What began as a fun hobby of 3D printing Star Wars accessories has turned into a career-defining moment for Freed-Hardeman University sophomore marketing major, Kenyon Hope. His latest invention, the Flexible Wall Repair Patch, has been picked up by manufacturing company DPWagner and is being sold under The Gorilla Glue brand - the company behind the popular adhesive. Now, his innovative product is making its debut in 2,000 Walmart stores, with the potential to expand to over 4,000 stores nationwide.

"I started out printing Stormtrooper helmets and lightsabers for fun, and now I'm designing products that are in Walmart," Hope said. "It's definitely a huge step up."
