Scott Lee

About

I'm Scott Lee, a Bay Area resident for the past decade, tech fanatic, and tea connoisseur. I'm currently doubling in Computer Science and Statistics at UC Berkeley. I started off as a front-end engineer in high school, but since then, I've branched out into data science because of my interest in statistics.

I'm also deeply interested in teaching and education; as such, I try to do a lot of my projects and work around this topic. One day, I hope to make accessible, high-quality education a practical reality through technology.

You can find my resume below, or if you prefer, here in PDF form.
