DAEUN HWANG

Hi! I'm a first year Computational Media Ph.D. student at UC Santa Cruz. I am currently working at ALT GAMES LAB, advised by Prof. Edward F. Melcer.

My research interests are mostly on educational technology, especially focusing on designing gamification elements and using vairous media for education.

Other than research, I also have a YouTube channel where I upload my songs and vlogs.
