My Jobs 

I'm on both the building and programming. So, I help create and design our bot as well as code it. 

Where I started in robotics ... 

I've always loved it, but probably about when I was 3. I started stealing my little brother's tool kits and Tonka trucks, I would try to take them apart and put them back together. but academic wise lego robotics.

Favorite Robotics Memory

My favorite robotics memory is when I was in 6th grade. My Partner N and I were the only all-female team in the class. Every Thursday we would do battle bots; N and I decided to destroy everyone else, N wrote an essay worth of code, and I made our bot indestructible. I made a solid hammer with spikes and put an outer shell around our bot. We dominated.

Outside of Robotics 

I'm currently in the president of GSA and am a member of the art club. I write poetry, design protest fashion and logos, and am learning how to play Bass Guitar. I love true crime and my dream is to get my engineering degree at MIT. but in my free time, you can catch me binge-reading webcomics.
