Hi My name is Danielle Cannon or Danie. I have been involved in FIRST for a number of years. I started out with my daughter in 4th grade in FLL she is a junior in High School now and we are still going. I have discovered more than just Robots in this journey. FIRST has given me a connection to my goat. I have watched this program affect so many students over the years. I live in Utah and know nothing about programming my husband and daughter both program. I DO NOT! However, I can and do turn wrenches. I love working with my hands. Our adventure in FTC started 3 years ago when my daughter was the only girl on the team of 4 students. We are now 10 strong and have 5 girls on the team. We did not compete the first year. We made it to state our second year and last year we took second at the State Championship. My husband works on the programming side of things and I coach the mechanic and business side of things. We are using Tetrix for our build and we have REV Expansion Hub for control we have ordered another expansion hub and a REV Control hub that we are waiting to receive. We purchased a 2nd Tetrix Competition set last year so that we have a robot to prototype with. We have touch and color sensors. My primary interest in this course was because I feel like I could be doing more for these students if I had more formal training on what I should be doing. So that was more than you asked for but it's me in nutshell.
