Hiii!

I am Arpan Pandey, a fresh high school graduate from the Army Public School, Dhaula Kuan. I work and have worked in several roles in tech for 4 years, these include tech events planning, software writing, managing teams of developers, graphic designing, moderation of tech communities and much, much more.

I have worked at Hack Club; the awesomest place on the internet for teen hackers (not the ones you're thinking, we just tinker around and make stuff from other stuff); for about 2 years now in many roles. I have written software like the Club Directory, Internal voting websites, Open AI gateway, and guides for Hack Club Jams. Furthermore, I onboard new Hack Club leaders from all over the world and them to feel at home inside Hack Club and bring out the best version of themselves and their high school Hack Clubs. I also provide constant support to leaders and other hack clubbers to help them with their club and tech journeys at large.

I am also the Director of the Special Activities Division at Hack Club, there we plan awesome events, game nights, cryptic hunts, pizza nights and a myriad of other super cool events. We are running the largest Hack Club event ever called Arcade which has even been sponsored by GitHub, where we give awesome prizes to hack clubbers for shipping their even cooler projects. We also work to detect fraud, provide help, conduct investigations etc.

I also am an avid open-source developer who loves working on and contributing to all sorts of projects. I have also won various open source hackathons and blogathons. Apart from all these, I also serve as a Student member of the US Technical Policy Committee of the ACM among other NGOs that I help manage technical things for.
