Andrea Lukas

UTech
Computer Science
Data Science

Hi everyone! I'm Andrea Lukas, a 3rd-year student majoring in Computer Science and Data Science at UC Berkeley. I'm passionate about UI/UX design and AI-centered human-computer interaction, and I'm actively involved in Computational Cognition research using Large Language Models (LLMs). As the Manager at D-Lab, I'm excited to contribute to the team by optimizing operations and fostering collaboration.

Outside of my academic and professional work, I’m an active member of Berkeley's Dance Community, where I participate in various teams. I also enjoy discovering new matcha spots and...

Sohail Khan

Senior Data Science Fellow 2025-2026, Data Science Fellow 2024-2025
School of Information

Hey everyone, I’m Sohail - a 1st years Master’s student studying Data Science at the I-School. I am interested in the intersection between Computer Science, Data Science, and Cognitive Psychology and using these tools to understand, discover, and drive the development of assistive technologies.

I have experience building with brain computer Interfaces, developing distributed data processing applications, and am currently working on a large scale archival project aimed at preserving the history and memory of resistance movements through an embedding based...

Bruno Smaniotto

Senior Data Science Fellow 2025-2026, Data Science Fellow 2024-2025
Economics

I'm originally from Brazil, but I have been living in Berkeley for the last 5 years working towards my PhD in Economics. My main areas of interest are Behavioral and Macroeconomics, mostly their intersection, but I'm excited about learning and working on empirical applications on different fields.
