Re: Mentor experience

I joined 3081 in 2011 as a mentor when my oldest son was on the team. While I came with deep background in software development and am pretty handy around the house, I didn't have a lot of experience with soft real-time systems, sensors, or mechanical engineering. The other mentors on the team were parents and the faculty advisor (teacher) who were handy and hard working, but had little directly relevant work experience.

This year we had three parent mentors and two team alumni mentors. None of them had directly relevant work experience.
