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 eighth 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.

Hi, I’m Adrian! I’m so excited to have you all in CSE 122! I’m originally from Los Angeles and I have a B.S. in Computer Science from UCSC (banana slugs!) and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from UCSD. Most of my research work surrounds computer science education, primarily understanding the struggles students face when learning computing and how instructors and universities can better support student learning. My go-to “me” activities are running, baseball, gaming, and weightlifting. Feel free to reach out if you ever want to chat about the course or other computer science-y stuff. Looking forward to working with you all this quarter!
