About me

I'm Elias Lundell, currently pursuing my studies in Engineering Mathematics at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm. My journey in academia began with a strong foundation in mathematics and natural sciences during my time at Norra Reals Gymnasium, where I specialized in Mathematics. I have competed in the Swedish Programming- and Mathematics Olympiads and works as a teacher at Mattekollo where I teach aspiring students.

In addition to my formal education, I actively engage in research and practical projects. Currently, I serve as a Research Assistant in the CHAINS research group at KTH where I help perform studies on security in Software Supply Chains. At Around the Corner, I leverage my skills to enhance social VR platforms such as Mozilla Hubs and AltspaceVR. From integrating interactive elements like quizzes and online polls to creating digital twins that display real-time data from IoT devices, I'm passionate about making real and fun social interactions digitally.

I also enjoy performing arts, during elementary school I went to Täby Musikklasser, where I sang in a choir and had mulitple performances each year. I'm now, outside of my studies, highly active in Fysikalen and Kårspexet, two musical-theatre organizations at KTH.

Looking ahead, I'm excited to continue my journey of learning and exploration, driven by a passion for software development, technology, and innovation.
