Robotics Teacher and Coach
Born and raised and El Paso Texas and a certified Elementary School teacher. I was introduced to robotics during student teaching when asked to volunteer for a TAG after school program. I would teach basic robotics for an hour after school with an EV3 until I met my wife who on our first date introduced me to VEX. I started coaching VEX IQ and a year later started coaching VRC and now I also do drones. I got my bachelors at University of Texas El Paso and I have a masters in instructional design from UNT. I am in my 6th year teaching and five of those years have been here in Dallas.
