About

Matt Alston is a student at Duke University, class of 2017, studying computer science with a certificate in Innovation and Entrepreneurship.

Interests

Matt's main interests are sports, academics, entrepreneurship, and social. He played basketball and lacrosse in high school, and is currently a member of the Duke Women's Basketball practice team. Academically his interests are in computer science, software design and app development. He is a member of Sigma Nu fraternity, and enjoys long walks through the gardens, Penn Pavilion pecan bread pudding, and face timing when a simple phone call would suffice.

Favorite Demonstration

My favorite demonstration was "Viewing a Penny" because it was cool to see all of the different ways to visualize a simple object like a penny. I spent all summer using Matlab for image analysis so this brings back nothing but the fondest of memories.
