Alan Kang

Computer Scientist focused on data and its insights.

About Me

I am double majoring in Computer Science and Data Science at Purdue University. I strive to use Data Science to draw powerful conclusions about the world around us, while minimizing biases. I advocate not for ignoring data's outliers, but rather for their close examination. My main draw to the world of data has been, and always will be, to understand the people behind the data.
