Gordon Lu

My name is Gordon Lu. I recently graduated from the University of Pittsburgh. I currently work at Capital One as a SWE using ML and AI on a daily basis. I am a Computer Science, Economics, Mathematics, and Statistics Major. I have a passion to learn and aim for the top, I drive to pass down this philosophy to students at Pitt through my duties as an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant. I am currently applying to graduate schools. I am planning on pursuing research in ML/AI, Data Science, Algorithms, Theory, Quantum Computing, Cryptography, and Computational Game Theory. You can see how students have rated me in the past here.

I firmly believe that there are never any bad questions. My goal has always been to help students in the best way possible. I never want a student to leave recitation or office hours feeling more lost than when they came in. I always avoiding giving away answers, and rather leading and providing students with the intuition and scaffolding to mold them into excellent, hard-working students. I approach teaching with a positive manner, I encourage questions at all times, regardless of whether it is course-related.
