About Emilia
Emilia is a rising senior computer science and math student at the
University of Portland in Portland, OR.
When not studying, Emilia lives for anything having to do with
music: playing piano at a local retirement center, guitar practice
between math problems, and choir (really she can sing anything from
soprano through tenor). Even in the Portland rain, she enjoys
hiking, running, boating, and swimming. She has even saved a couple
of lives as a lifeguard at summer camp! Alongside her regular computer science
assigned tasks, she loves writing Android Applications for her close
friends and building regolith-digging robots with UP's Robotics Club for the
NASA Lunabotics Mining Competition. Perhaps she will work
for NASA someday!
During the summer of 2013, Emilia was incredibly grateful to
receive a grant from the
Distributed Research Experience for Undergraduates (DREU)
program for Biomedical Informatics and Computer Science research
at the University of
Washington College of Computer Science and Engineering.
Thus, she is humbled and fortunate to have the opportunity to
participate in the technology-driven medical revolution that can
save people's lives. Yes, it's all about serving others.
