Why tech@nyu?
I joined Tech@NYU because I knew it was the largest community of tech-interested students, and when I started on eboard, I found that it was more than that. Everyone is super chill, and being in an environment with other ambitious students has been a great experience.
What do you do outside of work?
Hanging out with friends, playing pool or screen golf, playing poker, working out, exploring the city, trying new restaurants, watching k-dramas.
Advice to your younger self?
Try as many different things as possible, keep an open mind, push yourself, and know that it’s okay to fail.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
I’m not too sure. Hopefully I’ve graduated from medical school and become a doctor or founded a successful startup. I have a keen interest in business, science, medicine, and technology so I hope to combine all of them in my future career.
Favorite tradition/memory from tech@nyu?
Our eboard social was super fun! Getting to talk to everyone and having amazing food was the best.
