    &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;hr/&gt;

&lt;p&gt;My own coach at the University of Central Florida (UCF) was David Van Brackle. UCF is &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.ucfprogrammingteam.org/&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&gt;well known&lt;/a&gt; in the US Southeast Region as nearly always at the top in &lt;a href=&#34;https://icpc.global/&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&gt;ACM Intercollegiate Programming Contests&lt;/a&gt;. Our faculty advisor was &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.cecs.ucf.edu/faculty/ali-orooji/&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&gt;Dr. Ali Orooji&lt;/a&gt;. My team &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.ucfprogrammingteam.org/index.php/records/past-team-members?view=employee&amp;amp;id=112&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener&#34;&gt;placed 2nd and 8th in the Southeast Region in 1991 and 1992&lt;/a&gt;, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After completing my Master&amp;rsquo;s, I moved from UCF to Georgia Tech for my PhD work, where I started coaching the Georgia Tech teams and took them to a few top spots (Southeast Regional toppers, finalists, and to two World Finals contests in Nashville, USA and Eindhoven, Netherlands).  After a few years of coaching the Georgia Tech teams, I had to stop coaching to focus on my PhD research.  At that time, David was in Atlanta, and I invited him to take over as the Georgia Tech coach, which he did and took them to great heights.&lt;/p&gt;
