I am a senior from Irvine, CA majoring in Public Policy and minoring in History and Statistics. In my studies at Duke, I have explored deeply the relationship between private corporations and the public sector through the lens of corporate social responsibility. Additionally, I am highly interested in new technologies that range from XR to additive manufacturing. The Fourth Industrial Revolution can’t come any sooner!
In my spare time I enjoy impersonating Peter Sagan on the road bike, listening to any album from Pink Floyd’s discography, and playing his electric guitar. My heroes include Quincy Jones, Marc Benioff, Jimi Hendrix, and the late Steve Jobs. Upon graduating, I hope to use technology to improve peoples’ lives. www.justinkoga.com |
