About Me

Justin Friedlander
justinafriedlander@gmail.com
I am a freshman undergraduate at Tufts University in the
School of Engineering. My interests lie in theoretical
physics and pure mathematics. I also am interested in learning about algorithms,
especially as they apply to Machine Learning and Simulation.
Hobbies
Outside of my classes, I am freshmen representative of the Tufts
Linux User Group, and I am a member of the Data Science Club and
the Society of Physics Students (SPS).
Furthermore, I enjoy expanding my education through online courses.

here.
I also enjoy physical activity. I have recently gotten into working out at the gym and dancing. Check out some dance videos I made here. Some sports I have competed in include Pole Vault, Bowling, Tennis, Basketball, Soccer, Rubik's Cube, and more.
I also am an alumnus of Boys State and FRC. FRC (FIRST Robotics Competition) enables high school students to build life-sized robots from scratch to compete and to showcase to children in the community. In 2023, my team competed at the World Championships in Houston, Texas.
Finally, I competed in chess tournaments where, at the age of 7, I tied for 21st at the World Youth Chess Championships before reaching a USCF rating of 1867 at just 9 years old. Read more about my chess journey here.
