Soft-spoken but brimming with confidence, Dev Shah asked precise questions about obscure Greek roots, rushed through his second-to-last word, and rolled to the National Spelling Bee title Thursday night. ...The winner's haul is more than $50,000 in cash and prizes. [Runner-up Charlotte Walsh gets $25,000.] Dev is the 22nd champion in the past 24 years with South Asian heritage. His father, Deval, a software engineer, immigrated to the United States from India 29 years ago to get his master's degree in electrical engineering. Dev's older brother, Neil, is a rising junior at Yale.
