Hello all! I'm a rising Senior, triple majoring in Computer Science, Mathematics and Classical Languages. I'm mainly interested in Machine Learning and NLP, but I've experimented a little in Computational Linguistics as well. I'm also a big fan of movies and politics, and love discussing random things. I'd be happy to talk with any of you about anything!

Colby Guan

Hi there, I'm a fourth-year wandering around the Computer Science major where systems and app development have caught my interest. In my spare time I am playing Ogrewatch, splurging on food, and blasting songs in the musical genre of electronic dance. I also enjoy long sits on the beach and hope to one day BASE jump onto a rooftop pool party.
Alexander Hwang

Hey! Call me Alex. I enjoy introspecting, listening to people, reading/watching/creating good stories, solving puzzles, taking transit to random places, and exploring new artists and songs on Spotify. Ever since I was a child, one of my biggest dreams has been to have the ability to fly, but some form of telekinesis or teleportation would be cool as well. You'll often find me wearing a straw hat. Say hello if you see me around! I'll probably recognize you, but perhaps not by name.

Hi! I'm a third year CS major and I am interested in a lot of things (but not necessarily good at): learning new things, web development, embedded software development, iOS/Android app development, machine learning, playing guitar, bass, drums, and saxophone. However, my secret passion lies with Chipotle burritos and old school music (Earth, Wind & Fire anybody?). Nice to meet you all :)

Greetings, Pepes~ I'm a 2nd year EECS major from Sugar Land, TX! I went to the same high school as KevJumba, Shaq O'Neal's daughter. In my free time, I like to browse dank memes and play eSport games: I'm currently deranking from LE in CS:GO due to school distractions, and I play League of Legends with housemates when we need to decide who will do the dishes or cut open the pineapples I purchased with my leftover meal points. If you find extra dank memes, holla me at ayylmao@berkeley.edu! If you are feelin' stressed, jus' know: You smart. You loyal. I appreciate you. Bless up. Another one.
