Dylan K. Patel is a believer in the product of music and technology as a source of positive impact for the greater good.

A high school senior from Scotch Plains, New Jersey, U.S. with dedicated interests in computer coding, game design and music. I have acquired multiple skills which combine my expertise in coding with music through the development of several multi-dimensional games involving complex languages, 2D and 3D art design, sound design and production.

My other passion is performing as a percussionist in the Scotch Plains-Fanwood High School Jazz band (Moonglowers), Rhythmsense (percussion band), and being drum line lead for the marching band. Having come from a family of multi-generational musicians, I have inherited the passion of evoking emotion through music.

I am fortunate to have learned skills through various sources including college courses, summer programs and school and I feel the best use of these skills is to give back to those less fortunate.

I run a charitable organization Code On Us with my twin brother in an effort to help others less fortunate and contribute to society. I contribute to society by donating my technology skills to organizations and businesses in need.

I am also an experienced Rocket League gamer and a Minnesota Vikings fan. I also love to travel and experience different cultures.
