Overview
Trying was a Science Olympiad competitor for 7 years throughout his middle school and high school years. He was a captain of Wellesley High School Science Olympiad. As captain, he could be found overseeing his troops while idly gossiping with his co-captain and best friend PenguinFan1210_. He primarily competed in Astronomy, Codebusters, Detector Building, and Fermi Questions, but was known to take on random events to help out his team, such as WiFi Lab, Game On, Circuit Lab, and a particularly disastrous attempt at Designer Genes. He enjoys reading, badminton, and videogames.

Division B:
Most of my division B years were spent playing coolmathgames on my iPad, but I was able to snag a 3rd place at HUSO 2020 in Circuit Lab before the country shut down.
Division C:
| Event | States |

| Designer Genes | 47th |
| Event | HUSO | Brown | BirdSO Satellite | States |

I definitely participated in HUSO this year, but I have no idea what I placed. Worry not, it was probably bad!

After 4 years of competing properly, I am most proud of my States 2022 Astro 3rd place, BirdSO Satellite 2023 Detector 9th, Harvard 2023 Detector 1st, and States 2024 Detector 2nd!
Event Supervising
None! But I've helped out with grading at invitationals like HUSO and am looking towards ESing at Purdue Invitational in 2024!
