A soon-to-be Master’s student in digital humanities, Most. Asmaul is eager to combine the best of tech and culture. She shares:
Digital humanities allows me to combine my background in linguistics with digital tools to explore language, culture, and society in innovative ways. I’m particularly interested in digital archives, data visualization, and computational linguistics. These areas make it possible to work with large datasets and uncover insights that traditional methods often overlook. The potential to create more inclusive, accessible ways of studying literature, history, and language is incredibly inspiring.
