👋 Hi, I'm Stella!

I'm an incoming PhD student in Technology & Operations Management @ Harvard Business School. Broadly, I'm interested in using computational tools, economic theory, and experiments to study the economic and social impacts of technology and innovation.

Whether debugging code or sharing life philosophies, I enjoy learning from the unique perspectives of those around me. In my free time, I organize hikes, jog through cities, explore new coffee shops, and play movie soundtracks on the piano.

I recently graduated with a degree in Data Science @ UC Berkeley. During my time there, I started Berkeley's chapter of Peaks & Professors, worked on AI and innovation research, hosted speaker events, and taught econometrics.

Previously, I worked at Amazon, NASA, and Apex146. I've also been involved in research projects at the Data Innovation and AI Lab @ Berkeley Haas, D^3 @ HBS, Computational Approaches to Human Learning Lab @ Berkeley, and Sensory Systems and Behavior Lab @ UCSB.
