If there’s one thing Bayano knows, it’s competition. The Houston-raised athlete is a two-time Olympian – he represented Panama at the 2004 Athens and 2008 Beijing Olympic Games – and the current South America 400 meter hurdles record holder. At Baylor University, he was a four-time NCAA Champion and a 12-time NCAA All-American athlete. Nowadays, Bayano coaches teens at an Oakland high school and is a literary junkie. He’s a huge fan of robotics and doesn’t let anything stand in his way when there’s a prize on the line – that’s when the fierce competitor comes out.
ROBO-TECH
Name: Dr. George Kirkman

George lives by the motto “Never panic” no matter what the situation is and likes to be in full control of life and surroundings.
