Aaron Hwang (ENG’21)

Aaron Hwang (ENG’21) is majoring in mechanical engineering. He has been producing a growing number of videos for BU’s various online media outlets since arriving as a freshman in 2017. After he first picked up a camera in 2013, his filmmaking has taken him to rainy Taipei streets, Tokyo shrines, Himalayan valleys, and all corners of Boston neighborhoods. His work spans dance concept videos, narrative short films, and most notably, advertisements, as the resident filmmaker for Sleek Machine. Suddenly remembering that he’s an engineering student, Aaron has also been a mechanical systems leader for BU Racing and interned with independent pen manufacturer Schon DSGN. On weekends, he spends a lot of time designing his custom camera gear, playing board games, taking copious amounts of photos, and searching for Boston’s best eggs Benedict.
