Caroline is a passionate member of the team who never limits her potential as an eager student in and outside of robotics.
What Got You Involved in the Team?
Mackenzie wanted to try something new in high school and I thought it looked like fun so I said sure and that was the end of it.
Who is Your Role Model?
Emily Chu, because she's super amazing at business and life in general and helped me figure out what exactly I was doing as Vice President. She encouraged me to go for it and then made sure that I was ok from there. Beyond that, she's a wonderful friend in every aspect of the word and has a way of making me smile with really little things.
Who is Your Student Role Model?
Pretty much all of the seniors from my freshman year, because they taught me everything I knew and were incredibly patient with me while accepting me. Never a dull moment...
What are Your Future Career Plans
Mechanical engineering at Disney or some sort of bio/chem engineering.
Interests or Hobbies
When I'm not building robots, I've been taking dance class for 13 years. I also really enjoy books and adventuring.
What Other Groups/Clubs Are You Involved In?
Beta Club, NHS, Suwanee Youth Leaders, French Club
What Are Your Dreams In Life?
I want to be an engineer, be involved with something that helps someone or improves their quality of life, and be remembered for doing something super unexpectedly awesome.

Favorite Robotics Moments
Well, the first competition I had ever gone to, we won, and that was a really exciting feeling. But I'd have to say all of the relationship moments: Greg accepted that a piece was a hat, Aakash showed me bandana 101, Rikhil taught me how to cut metal for the first time and blew my mind, long hours in the pits with Mackenzie were wonderfully fantastic (especially when we earned a hard hat pin), and there was one business meeting I had that was really spectacular.
