About: Hi, I’m Brett! I grew up outside of Boston, MA and moved to Seattle after college. I earned my B.A. in Computer Science from Harvard University and my M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction from UW. This is my ninth year teaching in the Allen School. Before I came here, I developed curriculum and trained teachers for Microsoft’s TEALS program, taught CS at Issaquah High School, and worked as a developer at Microsoft. Outside of teaching, I am a high school football official, a frequent volunteer at local FIRST Robotics events, and an avid board game and RPG player.

About: Hi all! I'm a 3rd (almost 4th) year PhD student in the PLSE lab advised by Gilbert Bernstein. My research focuses on designing programming languages that incorporate differential equations. In general I like making math code run fast! Prior to starting my PhD program, I worked as a compiler engineer in industry. This is my first time TA'ing and I'm super excited for it!
