My name is Maxwell Levatich, but I usually go by Max. Starting in Fall 2026, I will be an Assistant Instructional Professor in the University of Chicago's Department of Computer Science. You can read about my teaching here.
I received my PhD from Columbia Unversity advised by Stephen A. Edwards, where I studied improvements to the precision and performance of static dataflow anaylses for C programs, with applications to program partitioning. You can read about my research interests and publications here.
I graduated from Yale University in 2020 with a B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science and many lifelong friends.
Before going to college on the east coast, I grew up just outside the lovely city of Milwaukee, WI.
Beyond teaching, I enjoy game development, mixing drinks, and volleyball, and my wife and I are always looking for delicious recipes and restaurants.
