My Journey

I am currently a master’s student at the University of British Columbia (UBC), majoring in Data Science, Computational Linguistics.

My academic journey is driven by a fascination with patterns—whether they are hidden in large datasets, embedded in human language, or structured within musical compositions.

Technical Philosophy

I don’t just “run code.” I believe in understanding the mathematical foundations behind the algorithms.

  • In Data Science: My background in Statistics and Computer Science allows me to deeply understand model behaviors, rather than being only a user of black-box models.
  • In Economics: My background in microeconomics and macroeconomics allows me to combine Economic theories with Data Science.

Experience & Mentorship

Mentoring Program | Mentee Working with Jacob Oh (Jan 2026 - Present) Participating in a professional mentorship program to bridge the gap between academic theory and industry application. Focusing on career development in tech and software engineering best practices.

Beyond the Code

When I’m not coding in Python or analyzing data, I am likely exploring Music Theory. I am fascinated by how chords and scales function mathematically. This hobby actually complements my coding work, as both require recognizing structures and creative problem-solving within a set of rules.
