Exploring stories and systems — through intertwined media.

Hi :) I'm Andrina (Zhang, Xiaoxuan). I'm an Engineer, Computing Artist, Producer, and a 1-st year Graduate student at THE MIT Media Lab!

I graduated in June 2024 from UC San Diego with double majors in B.S. Cognitive Science - Machine Learning & Neural Computation and B.A. Interdisciplinary Computing Arts & Music (ICAM) - Computer Music & Music Technology, plus a minor in Computer Science. Before joining MIT, I worked at Bose as a Software Engineer (Product Innovation) for intimate, immersive home theatre systems and at Bose Professional as a Software Engineer Intern (DSP), spanning stadium-scale arenas to premium hospitality environments.

Throughout my academic and professional journey, I love tackling complex challenges, meeting new people, exploring new horizons, and bringing creative ideas to life. I'm an energetic team player who takes on ownership and picks up new skills fast. I thrive in collaborative environments that embrace diverse perspectives to build innovative solutions, fueled by my passion for audio and artificial intelligence to make a meaningful impact.
