Bio
Macarena is a Computer Science student at Universidad de Ingeniería y Tecnología, currently in the 5th year. She started studying Engineering, but she fell in love with coding during the first year’s introductory courses. Although she really liked what she would be capable of doing studying CS, she thought it was a major for more intelligent people. That is the reason why she explore a little more doing extracurricular and interdisciplinary activities, in order to meet new people and learn about their experiences. Doing so, got a realization that she was all the time around a computational way of thinking to solve problems, and also around software systems to help with that.

Since the beginning of her journey, Macarena has been enjoying every meeting with new faces to learn something about them. Her career interests are related to algorithms and data structures, but she also has a strong passion for how maths can impact in an artistic good design.
