My name is Spencer, and I am a Junior on the Coppell Solar Racing Team. Right now, I am the Outlaw team manager and the Business Director for the team. As such, I oversee both cars' finances and budgets, as well as working on fundraising and sponsorships. As the team manager, I discuss the schedule and any problems we are encountering with the Mechanical and Electrical leads. I joined the team two years ago because I would rather build something physical and use what we are learning in the Academy, rather than staying with just the conceptual or small scale projects. My time on the team has been great, from spending time with the upperclassmen from last year and watching our designs take life to taking part in interviews and sponsorship presentations.
Aside from the team, two interesting facts are that I play flute in the
band at Coppell, and I have recently taken up boxing outside of school. Between
boxing, band, and solar car I stay busy during the year, but they are helping
to prepare me for the full college schedule. This is especially true for West
Point, where I hope to attend college and major in Mechanical
Engineering.
