Justin Murphy; Four Years On The Team

Rochester Robotics... oh my. FIRST was an amazing experience that gave me the chance to meet some incredible people and establish great connections in the industry. More than that though I was able to bond with my team and diversify my skills as an individual. During my 4 years I dabbled in just about every field there was, Electrical, Mechanical, Public Relations, you name it. These endeavors I took on while with the team helped me decide the Major I am currently pursuing at Grand Valley State University, Computer Science.

 

High School is a hectic time in one’s life, in College it just gets worse (or better, depending on how you look at it).  When you’re swinging 18 hour days at school you learn life’s greatest skill, time management, very quickly. This is just one skill I took out of Robotics and I can tell you it’s a keeper. While most kids are swamped in projects and studying for midterms I have free time to work on my iPhone app and socialize with random people on campus.

 

Enough with the life lessons though, I’ll finish off this article with one of my moments:

 

Wayne State University. 2010. Saturday afternoon. Finals. The pictures online don’t do it justice.
