Saicharan Chowdarapu
Current student, based in Atlanta, Georgia.
Current student taking college-level coursework at Georgia Tech. Most of what I do outside class is running things, and figuring out the financial and operational side that keeps each one working.
This site is a quick, personal look at who I am, with a brief overview of my work and activities. For the professional deep dive, see LinkedIn, and for what I'm currently building, see GitHub.
About
Interested in computer science and business.
Studying Computer Science and Business, with a running interest in how the two fit together. Between school and the ventures below, most of my time goes to the part where an idea has to turn into a plan someone else can act on: pricing, a pitch, a curriculum, a growth roadmap.

Off the clock
44I've been playing for years and still perform in recitals. It's the one part of my day where I have to slow all the way down and get something exactly right, note by note.
Bollywood dance was a constant for me for years, 30+ performances, background dancing at three concerts, and teaching classes on the side, before I stopped in March 2025.
I currently play Valorant and I'm Diamond rank. Grew up on Rocket League, Fortnite, and Minecraft before that.
Scouting has meant a lot of time outdoors, including multi-day backpacking treks with my crew.
Most of my time outside everything else goes to this: going out to eat, hanging out, no real agenda. I'll write more here soon.
I go to as many shows as I can with friends. I'll write more here soon.
My 2010 Mustang GT is my first car and still my daily driver. It's a manual, and I recently swapped in a custom screen myself.
I go to my local Starbucks pretty much every day, sometimes for 9+ hours at a stretch, usually working alongside friends like Vihaan and Sarosh. I'm apparently a Top 1% visitor there.
I cook a fair amount myself, and I'm always looking for a new restaurant or cuisine to try. Always down to go out and eat somewhere new.
I've watched a lot of anime so far: Naruto, Death Note, Seven Deadly Sins, Black Clover, Vinland Saga, Attack on Titan, Your Lie in April, I Want to Eat Your Pancreas, Demon Slayer, Your Name, A Silent Voice, Hunter x Hunter, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Boruto. Always open to recommendations.
I have one sister, a mom, and a dad. Growing up with them has been awesome, and I love my family.
Oreo is my dog. I got him on my tenth birthday, and he's been an emotional support and a big part of my family ever since.
Let's talk.
