Piyush A

Hi, I'm Piyush Acharya, the founder of DNAnalyzer, Vice President of Interlake Programming Club, and an Organizer at HackPNW!

I'm a junior at Interlake High School and the founder of DNAnalyzer, a GitHub Trending platform that revolutionizes ML-powered DNA analysis and makes it accessible to all. I'm also an Organizer at HackPNW (Washington's largest student-led hackathon organization), Vice President of Interlake Programming Club, and a researcher at UVic, where I apply machine learning techniques to neural radiance fields (NeRFs) and epigenetic data.

I love competing in coding and science tournaments, making fun and useful projects, and exploring new technologies. Some of my key achievements include winning the U.S. Department of Energy's National Science Bowl Finals in Washington D.C., being a two-time winner of the U.S. House of Representatives Congressional App Challenge, placing 2nd in the 2024 Science Olympiad Robot Tour event, and being a USACO Gold qualifier. In my spare time, you can find me exploring the latest in technology, biking through the extensive Redmond trail system, or flying my DJI Mavic 3 Pro.
