What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and growth.

As a dedicated Computer Science and Economics student at the University of California, Berkeley, I have developed a robust foundation in programming and data analysis. My experience as Co-President of Open Project has honed my leadership abilities, allowing me to manage a tech club of over 150 members while driving innovation through new projects and industry partnerships.

In addition to my leadership role, I have gained hands-on experience in various technical projects, including developing a mobile app to track classroom availability and implementing Google’s WordNet Tool using Java. My proficiency in programming languages such as Java, Python, and JavaScript, combined with my analytical skills, enables me to convert complex data into actionable insights, as demonstrated in my role as a Data Collector/Analyst for Political Computer Science.
