Justine Lim is a fourth-year Computational and Systems Biology student at UCLA who synthesizes biology, data science, and digital humanities to tackle environmental and sustainability challenges. With seven years of practical experience, she contributes to lab research at the Stewart Lab while building front-end tooling—she improved accessibility and UX in the open-source Spearmint testing GUI by implementing editor toggles, autocomplete, and Sass styling. Her background spans cleanroom assistance, data journalism, and design leadership for a campus newsmagazine, reflecting a rare mix of wet-lab, computational, and media-literacy skills. Actively seeking roles that bridge ecological research and societal impact, she brings both technical rigor and user-focused product sensibilities to interdisciplinary teams.
