Her affiliation with the NMI began her sophomore year, when she took the New Media and TED class.

After taking that course, she has become proficient in more coding languages, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. In previous Computer Science courses, she has developed skills in Java, Python, SQL, and C. Her favorite part of Advanced Web Development was utilizing databases and API’s. Any of the previous listed languages and skills are what she is able to help out with!

Katya has many hobbies outside of the classroom, and loves to spend time outside. She loves to snowboard during the winter, hike and surf during the summer, and run and lift weights throughout the year. Also, she plays a few instruments, such as cello and guitar, and performs locally for UGA community members. She is very passionate about bringing music into her professional goals, as she currently interns at the Georgia Theatre and hopes to pursue licensing and data analytics for music after graduation.
