Summary

Driven and adaptable English undergraduate with a rich background in education, research, and digital media. My journey has spanned from enhancing students' English skills as a tutor and engaging in hands-on neurolinguistics research with advanced technologies, to creatively sharing knowledge and insights as a social media influencer and exploring data science and programming. This diverse experience has not only honed my skills in communication and analysis but also sparked a deep interest in computer science. With a foundation in data analysis and programming, I am eager to apply my interdisciplinary skills to innovative challenges and contribute to impactful projects.
