Hi! I'm NaYoung, an audio/software engineer, XR designer, and singer-songwriter based in California.

I'm passionate about creating immersive, human-centered experiences. My work sits at the intersection of computer science, multimedia storytelling, and sound design, with a focus on immersive technology.

I am currently pursuing a Master's in Computer Science (HCI) at Stanford University, building on my undergraduate studies where I earned a Bachelor's in Music Technology. I've led projects like developing a mixed reality natural disaster simulation using Unity and creating cross-platform mental health applications with React Native. I specialize in designing intricate soundscapes and real-time audio-visual interactions to enhance realism and engagement in interactive environments.
