About Emily Yu
I was a hackathon attendee, organizer, and mentor. I am now part of an organization supporting hackathons globally around the world, paying it forward and giving back to a community that has given so much to me. I strive to apply myself to causes that have a meaningful impact on people. If you\'re interested in working together, let\'s talk.
