      Dear MegaMeerkat2005,

      I’m going to say something lame.

      My dad inspired me. He is also an engineer and I used to think he was the best thing in world, still kinda do.

      So hearing all of his cool stories from what being an engineer is like, taking old electronics apart to see how they work and building things like a kennel house for our dog made me really want to be an engineer.

      As for robots? That was films and games. Star wars, wall-e, etc…

      I’ve just had this fascination with robots for ever, and I’m hoping that we can share this with you guys so that you will join us when you are older 🙂

      Thanks
      Siobhan

      I grew up loving motorsport, especially F1. I thought it was amazing that you could have a job designing such incredible cars. From then onwards I always knew I wanted to work with cars.

      Now I use robots to build all kinds of cars, it’s great seeing a car on the road that I know I helped to make.
