About me

Hi, I'm Edin! 👋

Hi, I'm Edin! 👋

Hi, I'm Edin! 👋

From San Jose in the Bay, I'm currently at UCLA 🐻 double-majoring in Cognitive Science 🧠  (specializing in Computing 💻) and Statistics and Data Science 📊, with a minor in Data Science Engineering ⚙️.

I’m fascinated by the intersection of technology, data, and human behavior—where complex information transforms into intuitive, meaningful experiences. Whether it’s designing interfaces, analyzing data, or exploring AI’s potential, I love turning ideas into impact.

Beyond the screen, you’ll probably find me capturing moments and cool stuff through my camera 📸, hunting for the best food spots on Google Maps and Beli 🍜, or traveling to new places both local and international ✈️.
