Headshot of a college student

Hi! I'm Jeremy Kintana.

I'm an undergrad at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

I'm the director of the Wisconsin AI Safety Initiative.
I co-founded LeetCode Club to help students advance their tech careers.

At the moment, I spend most of my time around the following:
  1. Studying computer science; building technical skills
  2. Learning about AI safety
  3. Building and leading student organizations
  4. Effective learning methods
  5. Reading
Here's something fun: I have a 5-0 hackathon record!
  1. NASA SpaceApps Chicago 2024, Global Honorable Mention & Local Best Presentation
    We built an interactive 3D star map to see what the night sky and constellations look like from different exoplanets. We ended up being a Global Honorable Mention, meaning we were in the top 60 out of 15,444 teams and 93,520 participants, at the world's largest global hackathon!

  2. Hack Midwest 2024, Pinata Enterprise Challenge Winner
    We built a mobile app that puts names and emotions to faces. Definitely our most technically-involved solution — the team slept for 1 hour in a 24 hour period.

  3. NASA SpaceApps Chicago 2023, Global Nominee & Local Best Presentation
    We built a space sonification webapp, transforming star data into sounds using computer vision. Lots of data wrangling for this one.

  4. MadHacks 2023, 1st Place
    We built a visual accessibility Chrome extension. We were a team of three and we won four 55" TVs. We lived in the dorms freshman year, so we had no idea where to put them.

  5. MVHacks 4.5, Best Beginner Hack
    We built a club meeting aggregator website for our high school. Mostly flailing around with HTML and CSS, but we learned a lot!
