Mia is a rising senior at Grinnell College pursuing a Computer Science major and Statistics minor. She has obtained rigorous IT internships, attended competitive summer fellowships and programs, and developed award-winning projects. Last summer, she worked in the Human-Computer Interaction lab at Brown University on a project focusing on computational handwriting. Currently, she is working in the MIT Media Lab. Her project focuses on configuring statistics about environmental hazards occurring in prisons: the information will go directly to activists to influence policy change. She plans to pursue a Ph.D. in Computer Science or a related field. Her research interests align with societal computing. Mia hopes her research will be focused on using technology to solve complex social issues or systematic problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3128,"template":"","profile_category":[21],"class_list":["post-2453","profiles","type-profiles","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","profile_category-2023-interns"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/2453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profiles"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/2453\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3129,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/2453\/revisions\/3129"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2453"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"profile_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile_category?post=2453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
