Hi, I’m Michal Young. I’m a computer scientist specializing in software engineering, but with eclectic interests that include the ways our programming languages help or hinder problem-solving. I look forward to exploring the relations between human language and computational processing of natural and artificial languages with you. This is not a well-explored topic with textbooks full of knowledge that has been accumulated and refined over time. That’s the point: I want to bring you along as I think about how to think about these topics, what questions to ask, and how to find and evaluate provisional answers.  

In addition to programming, my passions include coffee (I roast my own) and long distance cycling.  I have ridden up to 270 miles in a 24 hour period. I have completed three grand randonnées, 1200km (750 miles) in 90 hours: The Cascade 1200, the Rocky Mountain 1200, and Paris-Brest-Paris (which is pictured here).

Hello everyone! My name is Angela, my pronouns are she/her/hers. I am pursuing a BS in Computer Science and a BS in Mathematics. I’ve lived in Eugene for nearly 4 years and have enjoyed spending my free time hiking with my family, taking trips to the beach, and spending time with my friends. When I’m not exploring Eugene, I spend my time indoors listening to music, reading new (and old) books, and watching TV shows or movies that I stumble upon on Netflix. I am always open to new movie and book recommendations! I am very excited to be working with you this term, and cannot wait to hear from you and get to know you! If you have any questions or need help, do not hesitate to reach out! I am available by email for any questions you have or if you have no questions, feel free to introduce yourself or let me know of some interesting things you’ve found during your time in Eugene!
