Ctrl-Z FIRST Robotics Competition Team 4096

• Head Coach

  • Aug 2013 - Present

  In my spare time I serve as Head Coach and Lead Mentor for Ctrl-Z - FIRST Robotics Competition team 4096. In my time on the team I have helped manage a team of over 50 high school students, as they design, build and compete with 120 pound robots. I handle team logistics from training new students and mentors, to fundraising and budget, systems design, acquisition of shop space, and sponsor relations. I'm also the main programming mentor for the students. In 2014 I helped the team move to Python as their main robot language. I continue to help them with various programming projects. I assist the team and its student leaders find new outreach opportunities. In 2016 I helped start the Summer Youth Robotics Academy, a week long all-day STEM camp for underserved youth in our community. Show less
