Edinger grew up in Deptford Township, New Jersey[10][11] and attended Woodstown High School in Salem County, New Jersey from 2006 to 2008. He then received an Associate of Arts degree in mathematics at Salem Community College in Carneys Point Township, New Jersey, where he graduated in 2010. [12]

Edinger received a Bachelor of Arts in mathematics, statistics, and operation research from Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey.[13] He began posting YouTube videos in 2010 while still in college.[14] Edinger was largely inspired by the work of Charlotte McDonnell and Ray William Johnson.
