Robotics & EngineeringAbout Me
Hello, I'm Ayansh Paliwal
I'm a dedicated student with a passion for technology, programming, and creative problem-solving. Based in India, I'm constantly exploring new technologies and working on innovative projects that challenge me to grow as a developer.
My journey includes mastering all 10 levels of abacus by age 11, programming in multiple languages since age 10, and building robots for competitions. I'm also passionate about sports, holding a Red belt in Karate and winning awards in swimming.
I believe in the power of continuous learning and enjoy sharing my knowledge with others. My goal is to use technology to create meaningful solutions that can make a positive impact on the world, especially in areas like education and sustainability.

My Hobbies & Interests
Robotics & Arduino
I started tinkering with robots early on — from basic VEX bots to advanced custom designs. Representing Robot Revolution at the state level was a proud moment for me. I taught myself Arduino through YouTube, building cool, functional projects that solved real problems.
Programming
I started coding at age 10, diving into Python, and JavaScript. Since then, I have expanded my knowlange to learning kotlin and dart for app development, C++ for game development. I also taught myself the Arduino Programming Language. I love how coding turns ideas into real tools and games, and it’s my favorite way to solve problems creatively.
Martial Arts
I trained in Karate at Moo Duk Kwan and earned my red belt after more than 2 years of consistent effort. I’ve competed and won at multiple regional tournaments — it’s taught me resilience, focus, and confidence.
Sports & Athletics
Sports have always been a big part of my life. From roller skating and competitive swimming to soccer, I’ve trained and competed since I was 7. I’ve earned medals at zonal and state levels, and I enjoy pushing my physical limits.
Mental Mathematics
I completed all 10 levels of abacus training, and it unlocked crazy-fast mental math skills. I love working with numbers and solving puzzles using patterns — it's like mental gymnastics for me.
