Hi! My name is Priyanshi Garg, and I am a sophomore at CMHS. I have been with Hack Club for a few months (started in August) and attended Daydream Charlotte, Daydream Global, and Parthenon (Athena Initiative) Hackathons. We (Prisha + Shreyasi + Me) were actually the winner of Daydream Charlotte and we placed in the top 25% in Daydream Global. I am currently working towards Midnight (in Vienna, Austria) and Aces (in Washington, D.C). I have experience with Python, HTML, CSS, some Javascript, and am currently learning APIs. I can't wait to meet everyone!

Hello! I'm Shreyasi, and I'm a sophomore. I've been at Hack Club for a few months and have participated in events like Daydream Charlotte, Daydream Global, and (qualified) for the Athena Award. I'm currently working towards Moonshot! I wanted to help start a division of HC at our school because I found it so fun and fulfilling to code a project and get something in return. Not only that, but I've made numerous friends around the world as well.

For Boba Drops11/07/2025
Today was our first meetings and we conducted the Boba Drops Workshop. The members learned basic HTML and CSS for their submission. I recorded the meeting for members to look back at when in doubt.
11/14/2025
Today we continued with Boba Drops Workshop and passed out stickers. We let members continue working on their website submissions and walked around helping those who need it. Members also learned how to submit using Github and deploy Github pages.
12/05/2025
Today we handed out boba to everyone whose website got approved and order it. Also got everyone on Slack and set up Github Codespaces for a few people before Github started to not work. They were introduced to some YSWS they could participate in over winter break now that they had the right set up.
