Smile Re: Girls on Teams going to Engineering

1) The robotics team came to my school in elementary school and I thought it was pretty awesome. Freshman year I couldn't figure out how to join the team, sophomore year I didn't have time to join the team but my best friend joined. Junior year I joined the team and it's been the best part of my life.

2) I have been on the Buzz Robotics team for 2 years and I hope to continue when I get to college.

3) Applied to and accepted to: Syracuse, Vanderbilt, University of Delaware, Penn State, UCONN, University of Vermont, West Virginia
Waiting for: Duke Planning on going to Syracuse, but not quite sure.

4) Before I joined the robotics team I had no plan on being an engineer. I discovered how exciting engineering is when I was on the robotics team. Now I am planning on being an electrical or Chemical engineer.

5) Because it's important for both woman and men to feel that they are welcome to have any career that they are willing to work hard enough to have. Women should not feel that engineering is a man's field. Women do have a unique perspective to offer, everyone has a unique perspective to offer.
