'Sup? I'm a new member of FIRST team 1640, the [[Downingtown Area Robotics]] FRC team. I'm a student who doesn't actually go to either of the Downingtown high schools. Instead, I'm from Conestoga. And suddenly my username makes sense.

Stoga has a "robotics club" (which I was in as a junior) where they play around with Lego robots (not for competition), but they don't have an FRC team, nor a VEX team. I'm very happy that team 1640, team Sab-BOT-age, accepts me as one of their own. :)

I turned 18 when the team went to the [[DEWBOT VI Finger Lakes Regional‎ | Finger Lakes Regional]] at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Hehe, we even had a nice little party with cake at the hotel. Coincidentally, RIT is where I'm going to college. I'm majoring in Game Design and Development. I'm basically following in the footsteps of several counselors at the video game camp I used to go to. I first heard about FIRST robotics from volunteering at a video game convention owned by the same people who own that camp, and I first heard about team 1640 at a New Year's party.

Two hours' worth of build season, two regionals, and three off-season events in 2010. This was a project I did at the end of my senior year of high school. DVDs were released in June, and the individual chapters were made available online shortly after.

'Sup? I'm a member of FIRST team 1640, the Downingtown Area Robotics FRC team. I visited the shop during build season of DEWBOT VI, and they haven't been able to get rid of me since. I'm pretty social at times. I play with everyone on the team and even some people from other teams.

I turned 18 when the team went to the Finger Lakes Regional at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Hehe, we even had a nice little party with cake at the hotel. Coincidentally, RIT is where I'm going to college. I'm majoring in Game Design and Development. I'm basically following in the footsteps of several counselors at the video game camp I used to go to. I first heard about FIRST robotics from volunteering at a video game convention owned by the same people who own that camp, and I first heard about team 1640 at a New Year's party.

I fail at cutting chains (see photo).

I have also been known to burn dremels.

At competitions, I can be found cheering, dancing, carrying our giant screwdriver, scouting (against my will), guarding seats in the stands, hanging out with other teams, and videotaping things.

Breakaway With DEWBOT VI

Two hours' worth of build season, two regionals, and three off-season events in 2010. This was a project I did at the end of my senior year of high school. DVDs were released in June, and the individual chapters were made available online shortly after.
