Kickass Founder, Recruiting for Good
I heard from a parent whose kid has participated in The Sweetest Gigs about the lack of support from Santa Monica High School for Santa Monica students to create a robotics club and team.
How could that be? Santa Monica prides itself as a progressive STEM education community.
I have no kids, but as a Santa Monica resident, and owner of a technical staffing agency (Recruiting for Good), I felt compelled to help out. The SamoTech Robotics Team is comprised of high achieving boys and girls who are passionate about tech and teamwork. The kids original met in Junior High, where the school had some involvement.
"I have personally seen kids who participate in the robotics community, achieve success both in college and in the workforce. My godson works as a developer for a Fintech company, and my nephew works as a 3D print designer for medical products."
