Biography |
---|
I am the captain and electrical lead of FIRST FRC Team Lo-Ellen Robotics, Team #4069. Working on the team and helping run it has opened my eyes to what I can use to create robots. Building robots with the team has inspired me to create my own robots, such as my current ISEF project. I hope to create more robots with different applications that satisfy the common goal of helping someone in need. Since I love working with robots, I plan to attend university and study Mechatronics Engineering to further my understanding of robotics. One of my favourite things to do is play with my puppy Jasper. I have been named the sole nominee for my highschool for the Schulich Leadership Scholarship for 2017. In 2015, I attended Supercamp at Stanford University in California for 10 days. If you've ever considered completing a project for ISEF, pick something that fascinates you or something you find yourself spending most of your free time on. This makes it less of a "project" and more of an adventure of discovery and creativity. |
