Heyo! I'm Matthew

An aspiring Software Engineer

headshot of matthew maung

I am a Computer Science student at New York University with a passion for applying machine learning and data engineering principles to build creative, engaging solutions. By weaving product management insights into my work, I strive to design products that are both technically robust and delightfully intuitive. Through my coursework, personal projects, and collaborative research, I aim to reimagine complex processes in ways that are both innovative and approachable for a diverse range of users.

Additionally, I'm the director of operations of Rogue Aerospace, NYU's foremost rocketry team, and an undergraduate researcher at Dynamic Systems Laboratory, where I'm working on building an agent-based simulation to emulate the movements and behaviors of ants. My interests lie in playing volleyball, traveling around the world, and trying new foods! This website is a culmination of all my accomplishments, experiences, and projects, feel free to look around!
