About

Hi! I'm Anna, a recent graduate of Columbia University where I studied Computer Science. Ever since taking my first computer science class during my freshman year of college, I've explored the tech world from all angles, whether it's diving into the fast-paced start-up scene, working at big tech companies, or leading tech-focused student organizations on campus. I'm always excited to take on a challenge and try something new; you can reach me at [email protected].
