Teaching Assistants

Teaching Assistants (TAs) help teach and run the course. Some TAs have access to sensitive information, and so are listed first. A TA with the "@" tag has access to the cs88@berkeley.edu inbox, and so will see (and likely respond to) anything that goes through that email. A TA with the "DSP" tag has access to DSP information, and so will see anything related to accommodations.

  • Fourth-year CS major. The only reason why I'm a math double is so I can avoid taking CS70, but then I dropped math ;-;.
