I have been doing robotics for the last six years and it has taught me so much. One of the coolest things about this program is the environment.

Spending time with the people that make robotics great is my favorite part of being on the team.

Out of the many things I have learned during my time on this team my favorite is public speaking. I’ve had many opportunities to become a better public speaker. I have also learned how to handle failure. It is so important to know how to recover after something doesn’t work the way you want it to and my time in robotics has helped me learn how to overcome these obstacles.

I joined Fusion to continue learning about robotics and all of its components including, using power tools, CAD software, and a lot of team work skills. My favorite thing about robotics is the environment at competitions. Getting to meet new people from all different places who share a common interest is a super fun experience and a great way to make new friends.
