Cárdenas Announces 2020 Congressional App Competition Winners
SAN FERNANDO VALLEY, CA – Last week, Congressmen Tony Cárdenas (CA-29) virtually met with the winners of the 2020 Congressional App Competition for California’s 29th Congressional District. This year’s winning team consisted of Josh Bowden, Achintya Gupta, Aniket Gupta, and Sejin Choi, all juniors at Granada Hills Charter High School. The group created the “Math4Fun” app, which allows people to practice math concepts in a fun way.
“As an engineer, I am excited to see thousands of students across the country express an interest in coding and computer sciences at an early age,” said Congressman Cárdenas. “I am especially proud of the brilliant students of the 29th District, and applaud the work of Josh, Achintya, Aniket, and Sejin. The world is changing, and we must encourage the next generation of Americans to pursue careers in the STEM fields and prepare them for the economy of the future. Thank you to all of the students who participated in the 2019 Congressional App Competition.”
