Atharva Naik is currently a sophomore at Hinsdale Central High School in Illinois. He works as a teaching assistant and contest proctor for Adventures with Mr. Math, a competitive math program, and is in band and the varsity chess team in HC. Through these, he has spent time learning various techniques and strategies for learning and improvement which are highly applicable outside of just music or board games. In the coding sphere, he learned Java and Python on his own and then furthered his exposure through the University of Texas's AI workshop. With his skills and affinity for helping others, Atharva hopes not only to teach students Python as the Lead Instructor of the workshop, but shape them to be more effective, independent thinkers.
