Summary
Emma Steffens is a Computer Science tutor and developer based in Cambridge, MA, nearing completion of a BA in Computer Science with a Mathematics minor at Wheaton College. With nine years of experience mentoring beginners in Python, C++, and theory, she pairs strong pedagogical instincts with hands-on engineering: she refactored large Python codebases, wrote ~200 unit tests, and raised scrubber test coverage from 0 to 62%. Her research and development work on the Lexos Lexomics Project emphasized MVC design, type hints, CI, and multilingual text processing, and she coauthored a paper on building reliable Python software. Detail-oriented and style-driven, she enjoys clear documentation, well-commented functions, and watching code-coverage metrics improve—an inclination that consistently turns exploratory research code into maintainable, testable systems.
