Whomst?

Hallo! My name is Anna (she/her) and I'm a Taiwanese American gal studying Computer Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Southern California. I'm originally from Northern Virginia and I graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. That's where I discovered my love for filling niches at the intersections of engineering, design, journalism, and beyond. I'm broadly interested in writing impactful code, exploring AI ethics/policy, and telling stories that matter.

At USC, I'm a Viterbi Student Ambassador, where I share my experience studying engineering with prospective students and their families. By leveraging my technical background and my love of writing, I cover noteworthy innovations, accomplishments, and events for the USC Thomas Lord Department of Computer Science. Some might also know me as a goofy mastermind working behind @csatusc and @viterbiadmission on Instagram!

In the journalism realm, I lead copy editing efforts for Morning, Trojan, a weekday newsletter dedicated to reporting stories USC needs. I previously led the copy desk at Annenberg Media, where I began my journey of contributing to accurate, high-quality journalism.

In my (rare) spare time, you can find me writing about good food, listening to music, and running from my life problems. Feel free to reach out via email; I'd love to chat!
