About Me
Curiosity, creativity, and a drive to build.
I'm Nuwan Dewasurendra, a high school student with a deep love for engineering and technology. From taking apart electronics as a kid to building autonomous robots, I've always been drawn to understanding how things work and making them work better.
My journey through Boy Scouts, culminating in earning the Life Rank and currently serving as Assistant Senior Patrol Leader for a troop of 100+ scouts, taught me that great projects require more than technical skill. They demand leadership, planning, and follow-through.
Whether I'm competing in USACO, teaching Python at PyCode Academy, building a computer lab in Sri Lanka, or writing AI agents. I approach every challenge with the same energy: figure it out, build it, make it count.
