Editor’s note – Our Engineers are well versed in diverse aspects of technology. Adam Rosenberg took a short break from product development to judge a robotics competition! Very cool! -
I have been interested in robotics since an early age starting with Lego Mindstorms and later at the FIRST robotics competitions. I was introduced to VEX Robotics by my good friend, Ilylia. Ilylia is from Malaysia and is a driving force in her country to spread math and science education through robotics.
My wife calls me a workaholic. That may be true since I really don’t mind handling technical support emails over the holidays. I have to admit though, my motivation is not completely selfless. Our clients create the coolest projects in the world and if I get the chance to help resolve an issue with any of those, well, that gives me something to talk (maybe brag) about. My brother and I have had a pretty competitive relationship since I can remember. What better way to win the “who’s better” contest for the year than to say, “I helped make an attraction work better than ever that thousands, if not millions, of people will enjoy”. Yes, I think I can safely say that I don’t mind receiving technical support emails.
