About

Hugh Gramelspacher

I am a CS student at the University of Washington passionate about how technology can reshape learning through startups, entrepreneurship, and building.

I originally came to UW to become a history teacher, inspired by my grandmother who taught for over 40 years. After taking my first programming course, I discovered a love for creative problem-solving and realized I could combine that skill set with my passion for education to build software that changes lives.

Current Focus

  • Product Management Intern at Maximal Learning, an early-stage edtech startup looking to revolutionize how college students use software to manage their daily lives and productivity.
  • Building a 200+ community centered around social accountability and focusing, where social software augments productivity.
  • Focused on learning software engineering and improving my process in building high-quality, scalable applications.

Outside of work, I enjoy reading historical literature, building side projects, and strategy games focused on history, politics, and economic systems. I also love movies and storytelling.
