MY NAME IS

JULIA DING.

I’m a developer with a strong quantitative background studying computer science and operations research as a C.P. Davis Scholar at Columbia University.

About Me.

Whether literally or figuratively, I'm always building: knowledge, passions, applications, communities. I've interned at Google for the past two summers and was an AI fellow at Verizon this past year. At Columbia, I serve on the Executive Board of our Quant Group and IEEE and also help to lead our Women in Computer Science Club and Application Development Initiative Club. I serve as the Professional Development & Alumni Affairs Representative on our Engineering Student Council, dance as part of Orchesis, and am a Resident Adviser.

In my free time, I play the cello and piano. I'm an absolute foodie and enjoy eating cheese, journaling, and trying new restaurants and cafes. Feel free to reach out!

Check out some of my latest projects.
