What are 2 fun facts about you?

I have been figure skating since I was 7 years old.
I have never gotten a haircut.

Why did you join the Adambots?

I joined Robotics because it seemed like an interesting and different thing to do than I had ever done before. I wanted to do something where I could learn a lot of new things, more than just normal classes in school can teach me.

What is your favorite memory from robotics?

My favorite memory was last year when the team had their first road rally. That was the first time that I saw myself going through such odd challenges that were so much fun! Through that experience, I was able to become great friends with many people on the team who were able to teach me so much over the season.

What have you learned from being on the team?

I have learned to work with others and learn to trust people more and how to nicely edit the website.  I also learned how to never give up even if something isn’t working, keep trying.

What is special about FIRST?

FIRST is special because it provides students with the chance to apply what they have learned at school and create real life experience. By being able to do this, it is like having an internship before even going to college, which allows us to gain experience before choosing what type of education/degree we want to get in college.
