Grodecki has been developing his interest in electronics and
robotics and building robots for the past two years. He first
participated in the annual OCAD Sumo Robot Challenge last year, with
Mostly Harmless, which lost against The Edge thanks
to a driving error. He returned this year and conquered.
Grodecki, a member of the Ryerson Sumo Robotics
Club, is proud of his accomplishments and will be starting his
third year of the Electrical Engineering program at Ryerson
University in September.
