Profession & Company:

What made you decide to become a mentor for Kapolei Robotics?
I want to help the students, who are looking into becoming engineers, better understand what their futures could possibly look like. There are many different opportunities out there for them; should they decide they want to pursue a future career in engineering. I also want to be there to offer my support if they determine engineering isn’t right for them, because there are so many other amazing career paths to choose from.
Hobbies & Interests:
Reading, playing games, watching shows, baking (if I have the time), hiking, crochet and embroidery.
