KARLY HOU

I'm so glad you found my corner of the internet! I'm Karly, a junior at Harvard studying Computer Science & Mathematics. 

​

I'm currently building for equitable education over at Wave Learning Festival, painting, pondering ways of making meaning, and trying to get back to my deadlift PR. Previously, I've been at places like D.E. Shaw, Two Sigma, Bain, NVIDIA, Prof. Murthy's computational neuroscience lab at Harvard, and Stony Brook University's materials science labs.

​

Growing up in the heart of the Silicon Valley, I've been immersed in constant innovation and instilled with a deep appreciation for frontier technology. For me, that technology is inextricably tied to the arts and humanities, which inform the ways we live good, purposeful lives.

​

Some things I really care about:

​

• Quality, accessible education

• Women's health 

• Sustainable innovations & healthy cities

• Financial accessibility

​

Some things I love:

​

• Meeting new people

• Contemporary art & photography

• Robots

• Learning new languages

• Fiction, poetry, philosophy

• Singing & violin

• Sci-fi films & literature

• Space & deep ocean exploration

​

I'd love to meet you—say hello!
