Tell us a little about yourself...

[Dan 550]

Well, it's that time again. It's time for everybody to get to know everyone else a little better. What better way than to post a little something about yourself on ChiefDelphi Forums?

I'll start.

I'm Dan Richards, a "constructor" on Team 550 from Warren County in Northwest New Jersey. I'm an ASE-certified Auto Mechanic in a schooling and apprenticeship program, and I work in a hardware store called Home Towne Hardware (...and a whole lot more!). My life goal at this time is to enter the world of automotive engineering.

Now it's your turn!

I'm a student on what used to be 258. I am quite a computer enthusiast, and am usually the acting programmer for the team, though I have been known to dabble in various other areas.

I spend a lot of time in Tigerbolt, too, under the name Jim258 (or some odd variation thereof). You can AIM me at FotoPlasma or PotatoPlasma, depending on the computer I'm currently using.

[Erin Rapacki]

My name is Erin Rapacki (not too surprising, huh?). I was on Buzz Robotics the past two years and I had the time of my life. I'm now an incoming freshman at Northeastern University and I intend on being on their team as a mentor. I do not know what my exact role in FIRST Robotics is, as of right now I'm not impressively computer savvy or technical... but I've been told that I have a lot of leadership potential, I know how to get things done, and my crazy enthusiasm for robotics tends to stick onto others. I'm also into biking, hiking, and boating. I'm joining the Crew team at NEU this fall. My major is mechanical engineering so I'm probably joining SWE and ASME as well. I'll be online all the time starting Sept 14th, so talk to me. My screen name is anetta284.

[Ricky Q.]

I am Ricky Quinones (actually thats not my real name, but that doesn't matter), I will be a junior at Oconomowoc HS in Oconomowoc, WI and entering my 2nd year on #269, I do alot of eveything on my team, mechanical, electrical, and I was a driver this year. Next year I hope to focus mainly on elec, and hopefully drive or coach.

[Katie Reynolds]

As you can see, I'm Katie Reynolds. I will be a junior this year at Appleton East High School (one of the three high schools that make up the NEW Apple Corps). I will also be a student in the new Tesla Engineering Charter School at East. This will be my third year on team 93. During the season, I'm on the "controls" sub-system of our team. The sub-system is made up of about 4 people who build the controls, do the electrical stuff, wiring, programming and pneumatics on the robot! In the off-season (if you could call it that) I'm usually busy setting up team activities, presentations and get-togethers... kind of the off-season PR person. I work at a Copps - a grocery store near my house for only $6.25/hour. It's no fun. If you're looking for a job, don't work at a grocery store! I'm working on learning to play guitar - both bass and electric. I played the cello for 7 years. I was in my high school orchestra and for the Fox Valley Youth Symphony (orchestra made up of people from about 12 cities in the area) up through this past year. I had to drop orchestra to make room for my engineering classes and since I dropped orchestra the teacher of that class wouldn't sign for me to be in the symphony. Oh well - more time for FIRST! If you wanna chat...
