Major: Computer Science, Linguistics

Hi! My name’s Esther and I’m a second year majoring in computer science and linguistics. I’m passionate about helping students navigate the countless resources and opportunities available here at UW. Whatever stage you're at in your learning journey, I'm here to give you the confidence and knowledge you need to succeed!

I'm still exploring different opportunities, but I would love something to do with natural language processing. I want to work on something that combines my interests in computer science and linguistics to make a positive, tangible impact on other people.

I jump between this and that, but recently I've spent my time crocheting, learning electric guitar, working out and playing video games.

I caught COVID-19 twice this spring, once during midterms week and once during finals week. Initially, I panicked, but I coordinated with my professors to make sure I had the time to recover fully and still perform my best on exams. As someone with a chronic health condition, this experience emphasized how important it is to balance my health with my academics. It wasn't easy, but I now know how to manage setbacks and stay on track, even when things don't go as planned.
