    • FIRST Robotics Team 118

      Jan 2013 - Apr 2016

      In charge of designing and manufacturing the scouting sheets needed to collect empirical data on robot performance at FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Regional Events and FRC Championships, so the team can use the data to gain a strategic advantage while competing. FRC Team 118 won the 2015 FRC World Championship. Worked with a team of 60 members to design, prototype, and manufacture parts for a certain subsystem on the robot. Learned how to use large machinery such as the drill press, vertical band saw, and horizontal band saw. Collect empirical data on robot characteristics and abilities, so the data can be used to the strategic advantage of the team while at competition.
