Five years later, I'm at the same company. These days, I'm a technical program manager overseeing development for one of the core engines that drives our entire family of products.

Re: What's your day job?

I graduated high school in 2015. After taking a gap year, I started college at Washington State University.
I'm in my second semester in the mechanical engineering program, and I've recently taken on a half time job as a mechanical engineer at Shoot360. They are a rapidly expanding Vancouver based basketball company. There focus is on technology aided training. Here is there website.

It's been great so far, but has made for a very busy build season.

And now I'm a Friction Stir Weld Technician. Same job, just more experience. See my WAI photo.

Re: What's your day job?

I'm just a teacher. No glamor, no glitz. Just working with some GREAT FIRST teams for the past 7 years! Robotics helps me go to work daily after 30 years in the classroom. I teach engineering concepts and basic robotics (VEX).

That's my day, night, weekends, summers, holidays job! I wouldn't have it any other way!!! Y'all should give it a try. You might like it!
