About Michelle E. Polo

Curious, driven, and passionate about learning — I’m currently pursuing a degree in Linguistics with a focus on computational linguistics, natural language processing, language acquisition and pedagogy. I thrive in interdisciplinary environments where language, technology, and global perspectives intersect.With experience in teaching, coding, research, and management, I bring a mix of analytical thinking and creative problem-solving to every project. I’m especially interested in opportunities that involve international collaboration, educational technology, research, data analysis and teaching. Outside of work and studies, I enjoy photography, language learning, hiking, and volunteering, which help me stay grounded and energized.Let’s connect!
