Robotics
My interest in robotics began in fourth grade after performing as a lead in a robotics-themed musical.
That experience sparked my curiosity, and I have continued developing my skills through school and independent learning.
I am currently enrolled in Fay’s Advanced Design Portfolio elective, where I explore robotics through hands-on projects.
01
Moose Moves
: A Visual Scoring Project
During my first year at Fay, I created a robotics project that began as a simple “what if” idea. Because Fay hosts many competitions, I wondered what it would be like if scores were more visible to students instead of being announced only during assemblies every few weeks. I wanted to design something that could share information while also motivating the community in a fun and engaging way. Using Arduino, I built a visual system that displayed results through moving moose figures and red-and-white flags, making competition outcomes easy and exciting to see. This project was especially meaningful to me because it was my first real-world Arduino project, turning personal curiosity into something that energized and engaged others.
02
Welding
Through my involvement in robotics, I became interested in learning practical, real-world engineering skills beyond the classroom.
My father, who works in the semiconductor industry, encouraged me to explore welding as a foundational skill.
After studying the theory, I learned hands-on welding techniques at my father’s company and earned an AWS welding certification.
This experience helped me connect robotics and engineering to real-world applications and strengthened my problem-solving and technical skills.
03
VEX Robotics
Tournament Finalist at the VEX Robotics Competition.
As a member of Team 20247B, I competed in the VRC Over Under MS/HS Blended Korea Nationals (2023–2024) and advanced to the final round.
This experience strengthened my skills in teamwork, strategy, and problem-solving in a competitive robotics environment.
