Arnav Gupta appears to have grown up in Bethesda, Maryland. An online search of records indicates that he graduated from the Landon School, a private college prep school for boys, in 2004.

His picture was also included in a Landon Magazine article from 2013 that highlighted what alumni were up to. Gupta was pictured at Everest Base Camp in Nepal. You can see that page here.

After high school, Gupta moved to Boston for college. He studied International Relations and Affairs at Boston University. He appears to have graduated in 2008.

Arnav Gupta worked as a personal trainer while he was a student at Boston University. An online search of records shows that according to his Linkedin profile, which has since been hidden or removed, Gupta was associated with Town Sports International. During high school, Gupta was an intern and translator with the Montgomery County Language Minority Health Project.

After graduating from college, Gupta returned to his hometown. He got a job as a coach at the Landon School, where he appears to have stayed for about two years.

From 2009 to 2014, Gupta appears to have worked in property management. His Linkedin information then shows that he became an executive assistant to the CEO at Alfredhouse Eldercare, an assisted living facility. Gupta’s last position is listed as an “Education Consultant” at Chance Academy.

Arnav Gupta appears to have expressed his political ideas in artwork and in writing. His website, called Arnamania, depicts a few pieces of artwork he says he created. He lists the prices as being fantastically high, from $7,000 to $10 million.

the Montgomery County Police referenced him as a Bethesda resident.

The Twitter account associated with the website has one only tweet. It was posted at 10:10 a.m. on May 29, 2019, “FEEL THE BURN!!!”

Oddly enough, the most serious, often fatal, burns can be painless:


https://www.netdoctor.co.uk/conditions/accidents-and-first-aid/a5366/burns/
[Third-degree burns: the tissues in all layers of the skin are dead. Usually there are no blisters. The burned surface can appear normal, white, black (charred), or bright red from blood in the bottom of the wound. Damage to the sensory nerves in the skin can mean that third-degree burns may be quite painless as the burned skin lacks sensation to touch. A skin graft is usually necessary for significant areas of third-degree burns.]

He wrote a strange poem that begins:

Memoirs of a Shadow President
By Arnav Gupta
Copyright 2019 Arnav Gupta
Smashwords Edition

How an inside joke between a group of Landon School Alumni
blossomed into the underpinnings of Elections 2016. From Ghostwriter himself. A CIA draftee reveals the background for some major elements in world history. This is the story of how just a few words and the exploitation of your data can forever change the trajectory of your life....

...Old boys at the Harvard Club complacently enroll
On the front lines we were expected to play a different role
Legacy admissions overshadowing meritocratic toll
Their jaws dropping on election night roll call...

...Silicon Valley’s fait accompli
Thanks to Snowden the world knows its complicity
Whistleblowers vilified for their unprepossessing simplicity...

So what’s this, another privileged east Indian/Brahmanist who shows his true Statist colors?

Should anyone be surprised at this point?

Why do so many of them prove to be Leftists?

His overpriced artwork sucks.

“He aspires to one day write fantasy literature in the mold of his favorites: C.S. Lewis, J.R. Tolkein, and Roald Dahl.”

I reckon Dante is more likely, now.

He’s local and seems to be a fan of the arts. My guess is he was depressed and wanted to make his suicide death by performance art. Have to wonder whether this psychotic episode was triggered by drugs prescribed by his shrink. Given our primitive understanding of both medications and the human psyche, it wouldn’t surprise me.

"His over priced art work sucks"

Once that person is dead, their work sometimes becomes in demand for some reason.
