It was my birthday two days ago. I find it amusing how we celebrate a day we had no control over. But thank you for all the messages and bday wishes.
I happen to be at home today which is very rare this time of the year. It gave me a chance to reflect. There are many things I am proud of, my wife and kids topping that list without hesitation. Two other things stand out and I want to share those with you.
The first one is my recent efforts to bring robotics into the local Armenian community as a stepping stone to taking it to Armenia in the near future. I am proud to announce the first ever Armenian high school robotics team out of AGBU, team 9772 Titans Robotics. My team is closely working with them in preparation for the upcoming season and you can see them in action at the Orange County Regional Competition on March 27-30.

This is the beginning of something much bigger. Thanks to the efforts of my relatives Karoline Kouzouian Samuelian, Alina Samuelian, Vasken Samuelian, a school is currently being built in Gyumri, Armenia that will house the first ever robotics team out of Armenia. Please visit https://fly.care/ to support this amazing cause.
The second thing I want to share with you is the publication of a children’s book by my robotics team. This is the first one in a series of five. Click here for more details:
