Name: Ella Tung School: University of California, San Diego Major: Computer Science LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ella-tung-940052201/ Short Bio: Hi, all! I’m Ella Tung and I’m the project manager in team Bulbasquad. From a young age I’ve been drawn to computers and technology. While my journey has led me to studying computer science, I’ve discovered that coding, though valuable, isn’t where my real passion resides. Instead, I am far more excited by the profound impact that computational advancements have in amplifying human creativity. Female leaders like Mira Murati inspire me, and I’m super grateful to be given the opportunity to hone my leadership skills as a project manager in our summer program with my talented developers. All that being said, please connect with me on LinkedIn! |
