Lina Jin's portrait
about me
My degree and resume will tell you I am a computer scientist and statistician, drawn to this path as I fell in love with harnessing data and technology to defy boundaries and make a global impact on our world. Beyond this, I am an artist, homecook, bookworm, storyteller, and leader.
Through my all experiences, I found that innovation thrives on creativity, collaboration, connection, and exploration. As I continue forward, I am driven to lead and make a difference.
