Hello, my name is Rachel W., and this will be my fourth year on the GearCats - I was a member of the mechanical subteam during my first two seasons, and I was last year's Vice President. I love being a part of FRC, and I look forward to having a leadership role on the team this year. I am also co-chief of the Millbrook Theatre sound crew, and in my free time I enjoy making art and playing video games.
Hello, my name is Audrey W. and this will be my third year on the GearCats. I'm looking forward to my second year of being an executive and meeting the new group of people that will be joining. In my free time I like to cook, play the piano, and watch YouTube videos.
Hello! I'm Grey H., the electrical executive this year. I joined the GearCats in 2022. Being a part of the GearCats has been some of the most fun I've ever had with meeting new people and competitions. I enjoy drawing, crocheting, and learning about astronomy.
I'm Seth B., one of two execs of the programming subteam. I have programming experience in Java, Python, C#, C++, Arduino, and JavaScript. When I'm not programming on our robotics team, I lead a programming club I created to train team members and create interest in robotics and computer science. I lived in the Philippines for 3 years, where I picked up a fair amount of Chinese and now attend a Chinese-speaking Church service.
Hey, I'm Jason H., and I'm the other programming executive this year. I've been on the team for 2 years now, but this will be my first as an exec. I like the competitions and the people you meet as a part of FIRST, but outside of this and school I enjoy mountain-biking, playing the piano, working out, and playing video games.
