Diana Hrisovescu

Ex Founder, Student at University of Notre Dame, IN

Hi, I’m Diana, a STEM enthusiast with a background in Computer Science and Business. I’m deeply fascinated by neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and behavior design. I’m fascinated by how habit formation, mental models, and cognitive biases influence our decisions and behaviors.

As an entrepreneur at heart, I thrive on solving complex problems, designing innovative solutions, and exploring how technology intersects with the science of human behavior.

Recently, I have just completed my 4-years undergraduate degree in Computer Science and Business with a First Class Honours at University of Dublin, Trinity College and am heading to University of Notre Dame in Indiana to pursue a master’s as 1 of 4 Naughton Fellows selected this year on the ESTEEM (Engineering, Science, and Technology Entrepreneurship Excellence Master) program.

If you would like to have a chat feel free to reach out via any of my contacts.
