How FIRST has impacted my life!

Before I ever knew or heard about FIRST,  I went to a demonstration put on by FRC Team 1533, Triple Strange. I enjoyed it so much, that from then on I was hooked on robotics.  I’ve been apart of FIRST since I was eleven when I joined my first FLL team.    When I started in FLL I did not think I wanted to be an engineer.  However, by the end of my first season I was inspired to learn more about the field of engineering.  This year I will be on three FIRST teams by participating in FLL, FTC and FRC.  I hope to someday enroll at Kettering University in Michigan and get a full scholarship through FIRST.  I would like to double major in Electrical Engineering and some other area of engineering.
