About

Hey there, I’m Chris Marra. I’m an Engi­neer­ing: Robot­ics major at Olin Col­lege. I really like cre­at­ing soft­ware, build­ing robots, and help­ing peo­ple — at Olin I am an R2, have been in stu­dent gov­ern­ment all three years here, and led our con­sti­tu­tional review and rewrite process. I did FIRST Robot­ics in high school — which is what got me into engi­neer­ing — and still co-run The Blue Alliance with my brother.

I am deeply excited by the fact we can now access the same infor­ma­tion from tons of dif­fer­ent con­nected devices, and the ensu­ing impli­ca­tions. I’ve got no idea where tech­nol­ogy is headed but I want to be involved in shap­ing how it rede­fines the ways we con­sume and com­mu­ni­cate infor­ma­tion. Robot­ics is a lot of fun to study, use, and see your cre­ations of in action, but right now soft­ware is what truly excites me going forward.

I don’t always do the best job keep­ing my web­site and its projects sec­tion up to date, so you shouldn’t hes­i­tate to con­tact me for addi­tional info on anything.
