Hello! I'm Lily Wu. I'm interested in navigating interdisciplinary projects in communication and language learning. Here is a snapshot of my work.
Lily Wu
B.A., Washington University in St. Louis, May 2020
Majors: Japanese Language & Culture, Biology
Minor: Data Science in the Humanities
For the past 3 years, I've worked as an Assistant Language Teacher (ALT) with the JET Program in Sapporo, Japan. Visual and written communication have always been important to me, and I'm excited to tell stories and amplify voices in my future work!
In university, I had the opportunity to explore website design and biomedical/literary research. These experiences are reflected in my current role planning and teaching lessons with engaging slideshows, blackboard diagrams, and worksheets. I hope to continue working on these skills as well!
I love learning new languages (programming or otherwise) and skills!

My design sense has been heavily influenced by the various websites I've worked on throughout the years. I owe a lot to the mentors and peers I have had the honor of working with! Additionally, my recent JavaScript adventures are made possible by The Odin Project's thorough curriculumn.
