I've worked with Kate in the past and she is an amazing role model for other females to get involved with FIRST and STEM. I'm incredibly happy that she had the opportunity to share her thoughts through MAKE Magazine.

Let’s improve how we work together, getting to know people as individuals and learning not just how to build robots but how to build more capable teams based on mutual respect.

This is probably my favorite quote from the whole article. FIRST is more than just robots, FIRST is a group of people working together to create a better culture and remove those gender stereotypes.
I hope Kate continues to share her experiences in FIRST with others throughout the world, we need more people that think like Kate. I know I will be sharing this article with others throughout the year.

They recently had an election and have new officers. Kate did a great job as the Director of Programs for the group last year!
