Alan Void Aaalan-Zhang

🏫 I am a graduate student in the Master of Computational Data Science program at Carnegie Mellon University, School of Computer Science. ~~This program is just...fine🙃. I wish there were more time to do the things we want.~~
🎓 I graduated with a dual BS degree in Data Science from Duke Kunshan University in Suzhou (Soochow, 苏州), China, and a BS from Duke University (great times in Durham, NC🍂).
📖 I am interested in exploring late modern period history, political economy, and public transportation.
🧑‍💻 For serious stuff, I am currently working on the data pipeline and backend for an E-learning platform, thinking about how to make it more scalable. I’m also involved in a startup project, though the development team feels a bit understaffed. Additionally, I’m building a QA system that integrates RAG, which is very interesting.
🧑‍💻 Learning a lot about systems and LLMs. 日本語を勉強しています。
🏃 Frequent traveler✈️. Managed to spend less than 7 hours traveling from my apartment in PGH to NHV🙃. Spent Summer 2024 in Providence, RI🌊. Good times there.
🥲 Currently struggling to find a job.
🧑‍💻 Developing my personal site. Check out alanvoid.com
