I attended the FIRST NAC for two years as a student on FRC Team 1676 because I wanted to make a difference. FIRST has made an incredibly positive impact on my life, and I believe that every school district should have the opportunity and the ability to provide after school mentor-based STEM programs to its students. Speaking to my government representatives with other students who were similarly motivated was empowering and inspiring. NAC made me a more informed citizen, a more confident presenter, and a more active advocate for STEM education.
