27 Feb Benjamin Carpenter – Dolores High School

Hi, I’m Ben, and I’m a Pintern. I have a background in robotics and am currently working on a rover for the Colorado Space Grant Consortium. This is my second year competing in their robotics challenge. Last year, my team’s rover completed all the courses, and we even won the Sojourner award for the best new team in robotics. I’m passionate about extraterrestrial robotics and hope to work for NASA as a mechanical engineer. I’m excited to apply my skills in a real-world environment.
