Biography

Hello all, I’m Da-Young and I’m a junior studying Mathematics-Computer Science here at Brown. I have taken introductory, intermediate, and higher level computer science and math courses so far, as well as classes in the Philosophy, Korean, East Asian Studies, and more departments! I had no previous experience coding prior to coming to college and completed the CSCI0111/CSCI0200 introductory sequence, so I know how it feels to learn computer science from the ground up here at Brown! I have also experienced the engineering introductory sequence (ENGN0032/ENGN0040), so I may be able to provide insight about diversity and equity in the math, engineering, and computer science departments. 

In addition to taking UNIV1110: The Theory and Teaching of Problem Solving in preparation for my role as a Problem Solving Fellow, I have experience individually tutoring in math as well as experience designing processes for non-profit organizations and social science research. I have a passion for taking a critical look at classroom processes and practices with a lens of inclusion and equity. I have also taken classes in the Korean language, East Asian Studies, and Philosophy classes here at Brown, so please feel free to reach out if you are in an area outside of STEM!
