Driven by compassion, powered by curiosity, and guided by purpose.
Hello! I’m W.A. Siluni Tharulya Sadakini Gaganathara, a student at Colombo International School, passionate about two things: healing people and educating minds.
My journey began with a fascination for numbers and a heartfelt mission to empower others through education. Whether it's through competitive math, publishing books, or simply helping my peers, I strive to make learning a source of strength for all.
Here's a few highlights about me.
The Netherlands STEM Olympiad Competition 2024, held in The Hague, brought together top students from across the world. I was honored to receive an Honorable Mention in the Olympiad Science category, recognizing my commitment and achievement in the field. This experience further strengthened my passion for scientific exploration and inspired me to continue pursuing excellence in STEM.
The award ceremony was held at Columbia University in New York in 2025, where I was honored with a Gold Medal in the Neo Science Olympiad and a Bronze Medal in the Neo Mathematics Olympiad, recognizing my achievements across multiple disciplines.
I also received an Honorable Mention in the AI Challenge, further showcasing my versatility across different STEM fields.
Tiny Gems is a heartfelt collection of essays written by Siluni at just 7 years old. Through simple yet powerful reflections, the book captures the beauty of childhood curiosity and the innocence of a young girl exploring the world through words. A celebration of wonder, emotion, and growth.

As an aspiring mathematician, I’m not just chasing equations — I’m pursuing solutions to real-world problems. I believe mathematics is a universal language that can drive innovation, bridge inequalities, and improve lives. Whether it's advancing education, shaping policy with data-driven insights, or developing tools that solve everyday challenges, my goal is to use the power of math to create a smarter, fairer, and more compassionate world.
