Anjali Desai - Portfolio

Hello World!

I'm a high school student passionate about artificial intelligence and computer science. My journey began with curiosity about how machines learn, leading me to complete Brown University's Pre-College AI program with a 98% grade and publish research on air quality forecasting in the International Journal of Scientific Research.

As Vice-Director of Digital Innovation at my school, I aim to promote peer learning and the use of AI in the classroom. I'm also Tech Lead for Shakti Society, working on women's empowerment and safety initiatives, and have raised over $17,000 dollars worth of prizes via company sponsorships as Treasurer of AETHRA, a student-led tech organisation that hosts online events. When I'm not coding or leading tech initiatives, I volunteer with CRY foundation teaching digital literacy to underprivileged students, write fiction for my blog and Kindle, and perform music as part of Dhuniscian.
