Mr. Hossain

As the Lead Mentor of FIRST Robotics Team 8739, Redhawk Robotics, I'm dedicated to creating a dynamic environment for students. Drawing from my own FIRST experiences, I focus on strategic planning, fostering innovation, collaboration, and problem-solving. My role extends beyond robotics to instilling crucial life skills in our team, resulting in remarkable growth and success. Leading Redhawk Robotics is more than a role; it's a commitment to inspiring the next generation. Proud of our achievements, I'm excited about the future. - Mohammed Hossain
