About Me

Jason Charwin

I am a student in the Data Science program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, pursuing a B.S. in the field. I find that I see systems everywhere: in how markets move, in how code gets written and maintained, in how organizations make choices, in human behavior and incentives, in sports and strategy, in politics and policy, and in music and composition. That lens shapes how I approach problems and build things.

What I'm like

When I hit a problem I ask what the structure is and what breaks first. I am analytical but care about impact. Competitive, and I go deep when interested. I mix music, play piano, and treat side projects as research.

What I want to do

I want to work at the highest level of data-driven decision-making, where the stakes are real and the systems matter. I am drawn to AI applications in high-stakes domains: finance, healthcare, policy, and infrastructure. My aim is to design and build systems that shape how decisions actually get made.
