About
Hello! I’m Pranit Shah, a Medfield High School student. I'm a student, a musician, a leader, and an aspiring Computer Scientist and researcher. I run or am a key leader in Junior State of America (President), Science Olympiad (President), First Robotics Competition Team (Software Lead), and Orchestra (Concertmaster for the Medfield Orchestra and Chamber Orchestra), Team Rival Competition, and a few others. I spend 30-40% on school, and I take from that this desire to learn from every other project I do in my spare time.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I recently participated in a drug prevention competition called the Team Rival Competition. I got over 400 hours of community service for over a 100 people, and this experience sparked a desire to help others. I love to organize and innovate to improve my community, and that turned into a desire to create a company that can change the world for the better through innovations in AI and Computer Algorithms. We can use certain tools to become more efficient, allowing researchers to solve more problems, teachers to help more students better, and leaders to interact better with the followers. I'd like your help too to aid me in this vision.
- Graduate school interests
I would like to research High Performance Computing or Embedded Real Time Systems, though there's so much left to learn in the four years of my college bachelor's degree that I cannot say these will not change.
- Outside the classroom
I take part in a few clubs in my spare time. I'm President of Junior State of America, a speech and debate club. I'm President of Science Olympiad, a science competition club. I'm a competition participant in DECA, a entrepreneurship club. I'm the 2nd highest in Chess Club. I also like to program GitHub projects for putting onto https://pypi.org (python) or https://pub.dev (flutter) in my spare time.
