FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC)

As Programming Lead and Impact Team Lead for FRC Team Elev8, I worked at the intersection of software development, systems thinking, and team leadership. I led autonomous programming and competition strategy while driving outreach initiatives that translated engineering into measurable community impact.

FIRST fundamentally shaped how I approach engineering, build robust systems, lead with empathy, and design technology that performs under pressure, both on the field and beyond.
