Maria is extremely passionate about robotics and computer science education and loves working with kids to help instill this passion. She will be a student at MIT this Fall and has worked as a volunteer and teaching assistant at Build a Robot K12 for the past 2 summers. She is a member of the National Center of Women and Information Technology (NCWIT) and works with middle school and high school students to teach them about Information Technology. She was part of her school’s BEST Robotics team where they took first place in their local hub and went on to compete at regionals. She plans to continue her studies in computer science by exploring the fields of machine learning and artificial intelligence where she hopes to make an impact in the fields of science and robotics. We are excited to have her join us for yet another Summer!
This camp must be purchased 7 days in advance to receive the RoboRobo Kit Core Set (https://buildarobotk12.com/index.php/product/robo-kit-level-1/) in time.
