Being a committed member of Western Association of Robotics Personnel for three years, I developed outstanding leadership and teamwork skills that I use on daily basis. During my second year of participation in FIRST robotics our team won the Greater Toronto Regional with over 80 teams and went to the National Championship, which was located in Atlanta, Georgia. By working hard and being dedicated I was promoted to the head of electrical team. When my teachers heard how interested I was in engineering they recommended your Engineering Enrichment Program, which I entered with fascination and enthusiasm. DEEP showed me just how exciting hands on work may be and Saturday Science Academy inspired me so much that I feel I will stop at nothing to peruse my dream and get into an exciting field of engineering.

Hi Dave,

As a committed member of the Western Association of Robotics Personnel for three years, I have developed outstanding leadership and teamwork skills that I use on a daily basis. During my three years of participation in FIRST robotics, our team defeated 80 others to win the Greater Toronto Regional  and went to the national Championship in Atlanta, Georgia. In the 2006 FIRST Vex Challenge, I was responsible for designing and developing a mini-robot that had to be able to solve a specific challenge. Becuase of my hard work and dedication, I was promoted to head of the electrical team by my second year. When my teachers saw how interested I was in engineering, they recommended your Engineering Enrichment Program, which I entered with fascination and enthusiasm. DEEP has shown me just how exciting hands-on work can be, and Saturday Science Academy has inspired me so much that I feel I will stop at nothing to achieve my dream of an exciting career in engineering.

Sounds like a lot of fun!

Good luck, Clive
