We are team Robo Mania, a passionate and innovative FIRST Lego League robotics team based in Clarksburg, MD! We're a group of 7th graders from nearby schools who have been friends since kindergarten and are interested in robotics as a hobby. We recently formed a rookie team and made it into the National competition in the first year! We love spending time together building, coding, and problem-solving with Lego bricks. We've also done many more fun things together and built team spirit when we did things like exploring a Meta Data center, taking walks, watching movies, going to Dave and Buster's, and going out to eat! Overall, all of us are glad we joined FLL, and it has been an extraordinary experience!
Vihaan Shah: Hi, my name is Vihaan and I'm into doing things with my friends like soccer, basketball, swimming, or just making something up. I've also been playing the piano for 5 years, and I love technology. Finally, I'm really into math, and am always learning new things about it. But FLL is also a big part my life. Throughout the season I didn't just learn how to code robots and make it do missions. I learned things like how to take everyone's ideas and put them all into one successful one, about how to think before you act, how to focus without getting sidetracked on a goal, and how to work together as a team. I've had so many fun experiences with my team like walks, playing outside, a movie and an arcade night, going to competitions, and have learned a lot about them. I'm really happy I joined FLL and it's been a great experience!
Anya Naga: Hi my name is Anya and I go to Hallie Wells Middle School. Some of the hobbies I do are swimming, tennis, piano and singing. In my free time I like to draw comic strips and read. FLL has been a great experience for me because I learned coding and since I really like to build legos FLL has been really fun for me in that way too. I also learned how to work cooperatively with people and going to states and nationals was really challenging but also fun. Overall I am excited to go to nationals and FLL has been a big part of my life!
Om Pawar: Hi, my name is Om and some of my hobbies consist of playing soccer and writing. I don’t really have a favorite food but I do love pizza. My main hobby according to me is soccer as I love playing it. I’ve made some of the attachments we’re using throughout our FLL career using a lot of help from my teammates. Not to mention all the fun we’ve had along making attachments, operating the robot, making presentations and all other forms of work we’ve done. It’s been a great ride and I’ve had so much fun traveling to competitions and more.
Kyra Parikh: Hi, my name is Kyra. Some things about me: Like hanging out with my friends, playing outside, drawing and reading. But a major part of my daily life is FLL. At first, I thought it was just about coding robots and trying to get the missions in on time, but then I realized that that's not the only thing. I learned better collaborative skills, communication skills, and formed bonds with others. But it's not just boring work. We have fun stuff too. We've been on walks have movie nights, and then other fun stuff that also bonds us as a team. Overall, I was really happy l joined!

I also love playing with my friends and doing sports like football and basketball. I love doing fll and I think this was a great idea for me, and I’ve been building and coding. Fll has taught me a lot about these things and building these attachments and coding these runs was really cool. Also I love being with my friends and overall this was just really fun.
Saanvi Pandrapragada: Hi, my name is Saanvi. I love hanging out with my friends and going out with them and playing outside with them. I like food and I frequently go on trips and I love it. FLL has a really big impact on me. Qualifying states and going to nationals means a lot. In FLL I learned to work with effort, dedication, and coordination. Overall, FLL experience has been a great and fun learning experience:)
