I competed in FIRST robotics throughout my time in High School. During my freshman and sophomore years I was on team 3165 - Newberg High School Robotics. The team dissolved during my Junior year and during my senior year I commuted to team 1425 Wilsonville robotics. Investing more than 70 hours a week purely on robotics and leading the design and manufacturing of a robot that went on to make it to the semifinals at the 2013 world championships and individually scored more point in the championship tournament than any other robot.
After graduating high school I continued to mentor the teaming helping to develop multiple drive systems and further the CAD and manufacturing fluency of the members of the teams.
Also during time period, I went back to my high school and was the lead mentor of the first all girls FTC robotics team for the school to have. The team, 4056, went on to best all of the other teams of the high school and advance through district, regional, and state competitions to compete in the West Coast super regional in Sacramento California.
