Summary
Daniel Hwang is a Math PhD student at Georgia Tech and Duke alum with eight years of hands-on experience building web and mobile applications, mentoring students, and developing curriculum for STEM education. He blends rigorous mathematical research—using tools like Bertini and MATLAB for biochemical network analysis—with practical software skills in React Native, Express, MongoDB, and autograding systems. As Head UTA for a large introductory CS course, he designed and maintained autograders and tests at scale, while also leading tutoring and DEI efforts in academic competitions and student life. A freelance developer and former backend engineer for WoTo and mobile lead for 4th Medical Group, he favors EdTech projects that combine pedagogy and polished engineering but enjoys branching into other tech sectors. Notably, his background spans both theoretical modeling and production-grade feature work, making him adept at translating complex math into reliable software.
