Hi! I'm Lucy, and I'm a PhD student in Human Centered Design and Engineering at the University of Washington!

I graduated from Cornell University with a MS in Computer Science in 2024 and from the University of Washington with a BS in Computer Science and a minor in Entrepreneurship in 2022. While at UW, I was also part of the Interdisciplinary and Departmental Honors programs (CSE Honors advised by Dr. Richard Ladner).

In my free time, I love baking! 👩🏻‍🍳 Although my family never used the oven when I was younger, I began baking in middle school and have loved it ever since. I've shared a couple of my favorite cakes on this page (inspired by classical art, memes, or even coursework), and more of my work is on my informal Instagram portfolio. 🧁

You can often find me listening to my ever-growing library of songs (some favorites), watching Netflix, or playing games such as Set, Clue, TypeRacer, and Quordle. Rain or shine, I enjoy walking, inline skating, hiking, traveling, and exploring the PNW.
