In my free time I enjoy weightlifting, running, playing dodgeball, watching baseball, reading comics, and playing video games (always looking for game recommendations!).

Hi everyone! My name is Skyler Choi, and I’m senior undergraduate Bioengineering student focusing on data science, with a minor in applied math. When I am not working or studying (or in lab), I love exploring good matcha places study spots, and restaurants. So if you ever need recommendations, feel free to ask! (And I am always happy to share some great Korean food spots too 👀) I also tend to fall into Wikipedia rabbit holes late at night when I should definitely be sleeping, so if you enjoy random facts, we’ll get along well! I took CSE 163 last fall, and I’m really excited to help teach and share the things I learned. Looking forward to meeting all of you this quarter!

What’s up, 163 programmers! My name is Johnny, and I’m a Senior at the Allen School.
