FIRST Impacting Job Choices

[Bcahn836]

FIRST has greatly influenced my career path in engineering. My engineering technology teacher asked if I would come by to some of his robotics meetings in 2003, since then i have played a major role on the team. Becoming an engineer is a major career goal for me and I have FIRST and my teacher to thank for it. I am in my senior year of high school and I already have 13 college credits towards a bachelors degree in engineering at the local college.

Being on the HOT Team's Chairman's (documentation) group made me decide that I wanted to go into journalism. I learned how much I loved not only writing but being on camera as well. My inspiration for my future came solely from the HOT Team and from it's mother-group, FIRST. I'm very greatful for everything that both groups have done for me.

yeah i've always been into medicine since i was younger-- now with FIRST with starting being involved w/ my older bro--well i def. see that i want to go into a more engineering field but still with med. in the background
i would love to do research and stuff with robotics of course

FIRST has def. changed my life for the better! i've become more of a leader in many ways and learned tons of new things while working in the pit-- way fun and i'm glad i tagged along with my bro (thanks big bro michael)
