Brandon

 

Brandon

Hello, my name is Brandon and I’m fifteen years old attending Mountain Home Junior High as a ninth grader. I have had previous experience in robotics with about three years as a FLL competitor and this is my second year in being in FTC with the Junior Bomb Squad (team 92). My role is primarily being on the build team which focuses on, well, building the robot. The reason I joined this team is because I loved being on it last year and I constantly want to do something great where I change the world for the better except it is difficult to do that because of money, resources, and funding; but these are things that you overcome to feel accomplishment but it is almost impossible when you don’t have the knowledge or skills to achieve your dreams and FTC is giving me the opportunity to gain these things.

 

Chrissy

 
Chrissy

Hello, My Name is Chrissy and I am 14 years old, and in 8th grade. This is my first year on the Junior Bomb squad team 92. Last year I was on the First Tech Challenge special unit. I have been a part of the programming team, and I enjoy last year's team, first learning the NXT and Robot C program. I’ve learned more from last year and beginning to learn more this year form switching to Android Studio. I joined FTC and Junior Bomb squad to get more of my future goals. I have a passion of doing music and game design which should help me in my future career.

Hailey

 
Hailey

Hello, I am Hailey, and I’m 13 years old, and in eighth grade. This is my first year on the FTC team, and I never had been on a FIRST Robotics team until I came to the Bomb Squad this year. I help out with the coding in Android Studio, and I am the head person for whoever makes up the website, for the robot were building this year. I first joined the FTC team because I heard of it when the team won the world championship in 2008, back when I was in Wisconsin. We have very recently moved to Arkansas, and as soon as we moved a few months before the school year started, I wanted to join the FTC team. I look forward to this year’s FTC team.

Jackson

 
Jackson

Hello! My name is Jackson Bullard. I am 14 years old and in the 9th Grade atMountain Home Jr. High School. This is my first year in FTC, but I was previously in FLL. This year, I was put in charge of the Promote video. However, I caught some sort of disease which unfortunately prevented me from attending the all-day meetings when the video was put together. I wrote the script, but sadly did not have a part in the actual video. I also took part in designing and building the robot. The primary reason I joined this opportunistic club was that I love creating and seeing those creations come to life and accomplish all of the goals that we set out to achieve.

John Carl

 
John Carl

Hi! My name is John-Carl, and I am in the 8th Grade. I am 13 years old but look much older. I am on Team 92, the Junior Bomb This year, I have been a part of the program team. I have had a little past experience with NXT products, but since we are switching to Android Studio, I must say I started out very inexperienced this year. I joined FIRST because I want to pursue a career of science and technology, and I believe FIRST can help me achieve my goal. I am glad I get to be a part of a team that tries to go above and beyond for everything that it does, even if the tasks seem impossible.

Savannah

 
Savannah

Hello, my name is Savannah, and I am 15 years old. I am in the 9th grade at Mountain Home Junior High and this is my second year on the Junior Bomb Squad team 92. Last year I was a part of the build and design team and found an enormous enjoyment for build and design. Then this year I worked with build and video design. I joined FTC because I found a passion for challenges and robotic engineering, I also want to pursue my goal in music. I enjoyed last year very much and hope to enjoy this year as well.  

Sophia

 
Sophia

Hi I’m Sophia. I’m 14 and in 8th grade. This is my first year on FTC team 92 or any other robotics team. I’m a designer, I do CAD, and I’m a builder. Being a first year member I’ve been the one with no clue what I’m doing. I wanted to be in robotics because many of my friends told me that I would be a good fit for the program. I also have interest in making ideas come to life rather than just imagining things.

Mentors:

Andy Marts

Mr. Marts

I became interested in electronics and engineering in the 6th grade. I have a degree in electrical engineering and have worked for Baxter Healthcare for 32 years. I mentor FIRST teams to show students math, science, and yes, even English are used in all facets of technological careers. Hopefully I can affect a student's outlook on school and provide the vision of a pathway to be successful in a technological career.

 

Brady

 
Brady

Hi, my name is Brady. I am a mentor for team 92 this year. I am in 11th grade and  on the FRC Bomb Squad at the High School.  I joined robotics because it seemed fun, and I was not disappointed. After two years in Junior Bomb Squad, I decided that being an engineer was what I wanted to do with my life. I felt that robotics would help me to achieve my goals, and so far, it has.
