Hello, I'm Elaine! I'm a senior at MIT studying Computer Science & Business Analytics, originally from Des Moines, Iowa.

My interests lie in the realm of software development, data-driven solutions, and exploring cloud computing—particularly in finance, entertainment, emerging tech, and spatial/operational analytics. I'm passionate about bringing ideas to life☺

Outside of work, I compete on the track & field team, play tennis, run, and climb. I love to pick up a good book, binge-watch TV shows, speed-solve Rubik's Cubes, and catch concerts whenever I can!
