Duke University · Data science

Hi, I’m Ammy.
Welcome!

I’m a master’s student in Interdisciplinary Data Science at Duke University. I also play a few instruments and write here from time to time. This is where I share what I’m working on and a little of what I’m learning along the way.

I’m an explorer, learner, and person constantly striving for growth.

My background

A little
about me.

I graduated from Carleton College with majors in mathematics and Chinese and a minor in music performance. While I was there, I worked with other students on math, writing, and public speaking. Teaching has continued to be part of my life since then, both in music lessons and now at Duke.

More about me

Outside of data science

Music, writing,
and other things.

I started with piano, then took up flute and viola in sixth grade. In college, I joined the Chinese Music Ensemble and began learning the dizi (Chinese bamboo flute). You can find a few performances here, along with some of my earlier writing.
