Hey! I'm a former student at Cedar Park Middle School in Oregon, and I first competed at a Science Olympiad competition in 2018. In 2019, I was one of four team captains for Cedar Park's team(s) as a ninth grader.

2018
This was my first year of Science Olympiad. I co-founded the team with a friend in January of 2018 as an eighth grader, and while this meant we were under a serious time crunch, our team of 14 still placed eighth in state with 199 points.

Events:
 * Crime Busters
 * Herpetology
 * Mystery Architecture

Notable quotes:
 * "If I hate this sound, it's calcite"
 * "Why do I smell meat substance?"
 * "Putting quotes around random words changes everything" *air quotes* "Everything"
 * "Hmm. Tastes like paper" "You know what paper tastes like?"
 * "You guys stop being little seaweed monsters"
 * "Yes the heater, I like the heater!" "The heater is so hot!"
 * "Set. The panda. Down"
 * "I NEED A MONOCLE!!"
 * "[name redacted] gave me eighteen wings"
 * "We're all on the muffin diet!"
 * "DON'T SCRATCH THE CALCITE!"
 * "Now my tower being overweight means it has muscles"

2019
In 2019, I decided to return to my middle school's Science Olympiad team as a ninth grader, and became one of four of the team captains leading the (two?) teams. A lot of planning was done during the summer, so we were able to have our first ever "Science Olympiad Orientation" meeting in September and get a head start on things.

Events: TBD

Notable quotes:
 * "No, we do not own a six-headed Minotaur who will devour your child’s soul"
 * "Why are we having this discussion about sqrt(x)?"
 * "Feel free to look it up on Google Earth to check if it's a dragon’s lair"
