About Me

I'm a sassy Sagittarius who likes to listen to every kind of music except for country and rap. Nickelback is my preferred band.

Note --none of what is written above is actually true, except that Nickelback is the best band ever.

I also appreciate a nice game of Calvinball.

Name Pronunciation

Amy Wang is pronounced like "A-MEE WONG". Hopefully one already knows how to pronounce Amy, and as for the surname, just remember if it's Wang then it can't be wrong (that was supposed to rhyme).

Early Life

In a far, far away land known to some as "Iowa", little baby Amy was born. She grew up an ambitious child, always first on the blacktop during recess. Then one day she was just shootin' some b-ball outside of school, when a couple of kids who were up to no good started making trouble in the neighborhood. Her life got flipped, turned upside down, and her neighborhood of choice became that of Mr. Rogers.

Current Life

Amy is currently figuring out the meaning of life, which somehow does not seem to add up to 42.

MATLAB Demonstrations

My favorite demonstration was the 3-D Drawing demo. I thought it was really cool that Matlab could take all these random points that I made by just clicking around and create a 3-D vase with them. I never would have thought I could relate Matlab and pottery, but it felt like something that I'd use in a technologically advanced (or novice?) art class or perhaps even in a futuristic remake of the movie 'Ghost'. Jokes and Whoopi Goldberg aside, the demo helped me realize the vast possibilities that Matlab can offer, and that it's not all about just matrices and stem graphs and the like.
