Thank you for your interest in working with me!
I am joining the faculty of the David. R. Cheriton School of Computer Science at the University of Waterloo in September 2024, and I'll be looking to recruit undergraduate and graduate research assistants to start in 2025. Before you contact me at mbrehmer [at] uwaterloo.ca, please read the following instructions, otherwise you'll be unlikely to get a response.

• Construct your subject line as follows: "Interest in joining your research team: { NAME } { LEVEL }", where NAME includes your family and given names, while LEVEL is one of the following: undergrad | MMath | PhD | postdoc.
• Begin your email with "Hi Matt!". This will assure me that you've already read this far :)
• In a sentence or two, tell me which recent project / paper of mine resonates most with you.
• Which of these three topics are you most interested in?: { bite-sized data storytelling | spatial computing + augmented reality (AR) experiences for synchronous communication and collaboration around information | immersive data analogies}. Explain why or what the topic means to you in a sentence or two.
• Include other pertinent details, but please keep it to two to three sentences. Examples include links to your project portfolio, YouTube channel, LinkedIn profile, or writing samples.
