Say hello to your GradSWE team—the people behind the scenes who plan and run all the events each semester!
President
I am a Computer Science Masters student at UIC. I am the President of GradSWE and a graduate assistant for Women in Engineering Programs. I love cooking and listening to music in my free time. As a Harry Potter enthusiast, I’m always eager to connect with fellow Potterheads for spirited conversations. Recently, I’ve ventured into the world of anime and would love to hear your recommendations.
I'm happy to connect with anyone on LinkedIn!
Vice President
I’m a student in UIC’s Joint BS/MS Computer Science Program, graduating this December with both my Bachelor's and Master’s degrees. Outside of GradSWE, I work as a Graduate Teaching Assistant for computer science courses and volunteer as a research assistant in UIC’s NLP Lab, where I’m part of a project focused on nonverbal behavior generation in robots. In my free time, I enjoy reading fantasy novels, watching sitcoms, and exploring the city with friends—always on the lookout for a new side quest. 🪂

Planning Chair
I’m pursuing a Master’s degree in Computer Science at UIC. I serve as the Planning Chair for GradSWE and work as a Graduate Research Assistant in the Orthopaedics Department, where I focus on digital image correlation. Before grad school, I worked as a full-stack developer at Verizon. In my free time, I love watching sitcoms and movies, taking solo walks in nature, hopping between cafes, and playing games with friends.

Communications Chair
I’m a second-semester master’s student in Biomedical Engineering at UIC, with a background in data science and a strong interest in neuroscience. I’m currently involved in research projects focused on brain activity and calcium imaging.
As Communications Chair, I enjoy using creativity and storytelling to share SWE’s mission in an engaging way. Outside of school, I love to travel, capture everyday moments on video and explore cozy coffee shops in Chicago.
