Introducing Claudia Chu!

The fearless leader and co-director of 2020's HackGT, a nonprofit student organization known for organizing one of the largest hackathons in the SouthEast that challenges thousands of students to innovate and create new ideas every year.

She is a graduating senior at Georgia Tech finishing up her Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science. To recap, she started her journey with her parents in the most scientific corner in Huntsville,Alabama where she discovered her love for biology later married with her genetic research and computer science. While she developed a strong understanding of the beauty of a diverse community in Alabama, she grew to become a leader in one of the most respected organizations at one of the most difficult technical universities in the nation.

Claudia approaches challenges with a game-plan and tenacity to continue to learn more in the process. When given many choices to make, she employed a concept from computer science known as the regret function: an ecomomic theory that models choice under the pressures of uncertainity with the anticipation of regret. She used this model while deciding to go on a last minute ski trip to South Carolina and uses it on larger decisions such as which career to pursue.

We dived dep into her many evolving passions and her abilit to weave different thoughts cross traditional academic boundaries.
