Re: FRC Class of 2015 students?

Hey!
I saw this post and thought it would be a great way to start interacting with the FIRST community more.

I'm on Team 4761, The Robockets. I'm going to lead the CAD and design of our robot and possibly take some higher up leadership role for the team (maybe a captain). We're still figuring out how we want to organize the team since we're still kinda new. I was also the coach for our drive team this year and hopefully will be next year too.

I'm definitely pumped to help get my team to grow and mature and spread its roots in both the local and FIRST community. I've been on my team since it started up two years ago so I really want to see it grow and become a permanent part of our school after I leave. I can't wait to get more kids from school as pumped about robotics as I am and train them to be the next leaders of the team.

On top of that, I can't wait to lead our team's first real CAD team (this year we had maybe 2 kids including me CADing; next year we'll have more like 6-7) I also am looking forward to just competing in yet another (and sadly our last) competition! I really want to make this the most productive, exciting, fun and overall the best season yet.

After high school, I plan on studying either mechanical or aerospace engineering. I've really been looking at going to RPI since I've had some friends who went there and liked it. As for after that, I would love to get a job somewhere like SpaceX. The stuff they've been working on has fascinated me and really got me interested in pursuing an Aerospace engineering degree.

Let's make this the best season yet class of 2015
