Hi guys! I'm so excited for my fourth and final year as a student in robotics! It has been my favorite activity for all four years at Columbus High. I have a passion for electrical engineering, especially in applications for alternative energy harvesting. I like making circuits and stuff so I've developed a solar tracker and am now working on developing an ocean wave energy harvesting device. I hope to go to MIT to study Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.

Hello!!:) I am Hallie, and I am very excited to begin my second year into this team. Previously, I have been a part of successful FLL teams in both my middle school and elementary. While this is my second year, as earlier mentioned, I am a freshman. Yes, I said freshman. ;) I was able to be a part of this team last year because of special connections with the head coach and have loved it ever since. I have been soldering and making circuits since I was 6, and just this year I have started to learn to use AutoCAD. I am very excited to start this new season.

This will be my third year as a student in robotics, and I'm anticipating rounding out high school with another high-stakes, adrenaline-filled season! (the usual, so to speak) I've experience on Chairmans, build, and electrical, and am excited to continue to hone and develop engineering skills over the course of the season. Recently I've been working on engineering a microfluidic device for biochemical applications, and continue to pursue my passion in integrating scientific interests (specifically biochemical and microbiological) with mechanical and electrical engineering. I hope to obtain an advanced degree in order to become a research engineer/scientist in a professional commercial or academic capacity.
