Team 1138A Eagle Engineering VEX Robotics Varsity Team
-
Jun 2018 - Jun 2022
Eagle Engineering is a school robotics club that offers intensive apprenticeship and teamwork for students to learn robotic engineering. I work with coaches, mentors, and teammates around 20 hours a week to develop skills, including fabricating, building, designing, engineering, analyzing, problem solving, etc. My role as the robot designer and builder is to innovate VEX\VRC robots. I attend the robot team meetings to discuss new ideas for improving our robot and to solve the problems that our robot has.

Jun 2018 - Feb 2022
I am proud to be part of the football team and Robotics team at Chaminade. It does take some courage and resilience to commit to these two demanding sports in a school that is famous for both. I play the Cornerback position for the Chaminade Freshman Football Team. I work with my coach to practice all the required skills and techniques five days a week. I always give my best to every game I play. I have learned so many techniques, teamwork, and sportsmanship from this sport.

Feb 2018 - May 2020
In order to better enhance my robotic skills, I decided to take extra lesson in Great Mind where they offer classes about object-oriented programming. I started with graphical programming language NXT-G. Now I am learning RobotC in the Enhanced Robotics classes, and is using LEGO robots to try out my code. RobotC is an educational product, based on a subset of a professional language called “C” (one of the oldest and currently #2 used language in the world; also a root language for professional languages such as C++, C# and Java – all in the top 5 most popular languages in the world.

Aug 2018 - Feb 2020
EAA is an organization that offers opportunities for young students to experience being a pilot. I was copiloting with an experienced pilot in the sky for about 20 minutes. The single-engine plane took us from Whiteman Airport to Glendale and back. It was a very fun and exciting experience.

Jun 2019 - Jul 2019
The Society of American Military Engineers (SAME) offers a selective summer program to high achieving students who are passionate about Engineering. This one-week program includes a number of hands-on engineering and construction activities under the mentorship of engineering professionals and uniform service members. The activities include several design challenges and sports competitions such as: (1) Designing, constructing and destructive testing of concrete beams (2) Building functional cardboard boats to be raced in relay races (3) Construction and testing of a remotely operated underwater vehicle Through these interesting activities, I learned about the theory of building an underwater vehicle,which can receive a signal in the water. I also learned the structural design and physics of making a cardboard boat that will float in the water and decrease the speed of sinking.

The Ace Academy (Aviation Careers Education Academy) offers hands-on opportunities to educate students about airport operations. On Day 1, we visited the Condor Squadron, LAFD, and CAPS Aviation. On Day 2, we visited an Aerospace company and an Air Force base. On Day 3, we went to the heliport of the LAPD and the Commemorative Air Force Museum. On Day 4, we went to Gulfstream and JetBlue. On Day 5, we went to the Santa Monica Museum of Flying. ACE Academy inspires my interest to explore more in the aviation industry.
