[Cabs-talk] My introduction

[Miso Kwak]

Hello Kartik,
I am Miso, a rising sophomore attending UCLA.
I believe I have seen your message some time on the blind international 
student listserve. Nice to see you here as well.
I am currently flowing around on deciding my major and have not much 
substantial to offer but I have interest in international education 
outreach for students with disabilities as a long term goal.
Also, as of now I work with a project that is developing a web-based 
map of UCLA campus focusing on accessibility of navigation and 
facilities.
Looking forward to get to know you in the future.
Best,
Miso Kwak

Subject: [Cabs-talk] My introduction

Hi all,

I just joined this group, and thought I'd introduce myself. I'm a
rising sophomore at Stanford University studying Computer Science. I'm
particularly interested in artificial intelligence and human computer
interaction. In the past, I've worked on several assistive technology
and accessibility projects, both in the industry and with non-profits.
At present, I'm interning with IBM Research, working on an
Android-based indoor navigation and person detection solution for the
blind and visually impaired. In the future, I plan on using my AI and
HCI knowledge to develop applications that can benefit all people with
and without disabilities.

Besides coding, I also enjoy Indian classical music and debating. I'm
also actively involved in disability advocacy, and am a member of
several national and international disability groups.

I look forward to sharing my experiences, and at the same time,
learning from all of you.

Best,
