Polly Huang is a nerd and a geek. She enjoys observing systems of complexity and loves the process of finding out their true nature.
She is super fond of taking machines apart and restoring them with twists of her own.
Otherwise, Polly's an ordinary professor who spends most of her work time reading and thinking, and the rest writing and reasoning.
