Hugo Barnes

I live in Bethesda, Maryland and I am a Math and Computer Science Double Major at the University of Virginia. I graduated from Walt Whitman High School with a 4.6 GPA. While there, I received a D1 offer to play soccer for Davidson and I won two 4A State Championships.

At UVA, I began my role as a teaching assistant under Elizabeth Orrico in Discrete Math and Theory 1 in the spring of my first year. I also worked that semester as a food server and pizza chef for Runk Dining Hall.

In the fall of my sophomore year, I joined the club soccer team and played as a practice player for the Women’s Varsity Soccer Team.

I enjoy puzzles, namely the crossword and minesweeper, as well as comics, specifically Calvin and Hobbes. I also love climbing and hiking.

This summer I look forward to working with Dr. Tom Hartvigsen on our Machine Learning research. Check out the research tab for more.
