Anne Madoff

Founding President

The part of CS that Anne loves most is problem solving. She enjoys problem solving within CS (e.g. what’s the optimal way to find the greatest integer in this data structure?) and problem solving that can be done using CS (e.g. how best do we use technology to improve healthcare?). She also enjoys eating anything sweet and watching reality TV.
