⭐️ Name: Laya Dang |
I grew up in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and moved to the United States in 2021 to attend Boston University, where I am currently studying Computer Science and Economics. Right now, I am interested in learning all-things data science and machine learning related. I hope to explore opportunities technology can be used for good and be a driver of meaningful change.

This year's New Years resolution is to read at least 20 books; I found this to be really challenging while being a university student. During my junior year, I started a book club at BU with my close friends called Book & Ink. |
I'm learning how to use CAD software and basic woodworking techniques while I still have access to these resources at school. The picture is my cardboard prototype and laser-cutting results of a mini Adirondack chair! |
Without too much risk, I'm exploring how stocks work with some swing trading. It feels a lot like gambling so far. As an economics student, I'm curious to see if patterns in the market reflect true supply/demand "equilibrium". |
Take a look at my Storygraph page to see my latest reads! |
I found the EPIC facilities to be a great resource while I learn. |
I am one of the VPs of Undergraduate Women in Economics, which is a fantastic community to discuss these interests with. |
