Filepicker.io: The Winning Pitch 

The web-based application, 

Filepicker.io, is designed to allow users 

to view, manage, and work on files entirely 

within their browser. Currently 

marketed to website and app developers, 

Filepicker.io acts as an abstraction 

layer through which developers can 

connect their new apps to their customers’ 

favorite third-party services. 

Filepicker.io then guides the end-user 

through the process of selecting a file, 

authenticating any third-party services, 

and creating a unique URL for the file. 

Filepicker.io aspires to become 

nothing short of the overarching data 

layer for web and mobile applications. 

More product and company information 

is available at www.filepicker.io. 

TJ Grad’s Team Wins MIT 100K Competition 

Every year, MIT students and graduates compete for the prestigious MIT $100K Entrepreneurship Contest’s 

grand prize, $100,000 in business capital. This year, out of a record 215 teams, the winner was a team founded by TJ 

’10 alum and MIT computer science major Thomas Georgiou and three other MIT students. The same work gained 

the team entrance to Y Combinator, a Silicon Valley accelerator that offers $150,000 to every start-up admitted, so 

the foursome took their winnings and moved to Palo Alto, where they spent the first half of the summer working 

feverishly toward the product’s July 12th commercial debut. 

Thomas (far left), who rows for MIT’s crew team and had won previous school-wide awards for his programming 

talents, is the company’s Head of Mobile and Infrastructure; Liyan Chang (second from left) is Head of Product and 

User Experience; Brett van Zuiden (second from right) is the company’s CEO and Head of Web Engineering; and 

Anand Dass (far right) is CFO and Head of Sales. The company already has 2,000 customers and is hiring new talent. 

Thomas credits TJ’s exceptional computer science faculty with teaching him valuable lessons in real-world programming 

and attributes much of his current knowhow to his experience as a TJ student systems administrator. 

The accomplished programmer and budding entrepreneur has these words of wisdom for TJ students: “You build a 

lot of cool stuff, but once you do, be sure to tell the world about it. You never know who might be interested in what 

you built.”

ALUMNI SHARE EXPERIENCES, CAREERS AT TJSTAR 

& The tjSTAR research symposium has really caught on with TJ alumni. This year marked the first time that the symposium 

featured not one, but two “Words of Wisdom from TJ Alumni” panels, whose guests ran the gamut from doctors and lawyers to 

researchers and engineers, and from the Class of ’89 to the Class of ’07. 

Several alumni also delivered individual presentations, giving interested students the inside scoop on their chosen careers 

along with plenty of advice. Three of these are featured below. 

“Do lab work as early as possible.” 

& Josh Waterfall, Ph.D., TJ ’97, who 

happens to be the son of just-retired 

English teacher Milde Waterfall, spoke 

about his career path and the research he’s 

doing in the field of cancer genomics at 

the National Institutes of Health. After 

studying physics and applied math at 

William and Mary, Dr. Waterfall did his 

graduate and post-graduate work at 

Cornell in computational modeling and is 

currently an NIH research fellow. He 

spoke about one NIH project where he is 

studying biomarkers to identify which 

patients will respond to targeted therapies, 

and another where he is sequencing the genomes of archived bone cancer 

specimens. He also gave advice on summer internships and the graduate 

and post-graduate application process, while remarking upon the growing 

interdisciplinary nature of scientific research. 

“Email me. I’m happy to talk to you about your tech 

projects, about anything.” 

! Joe Munchak, Ph.D., TJ ’02, returning for his second tjSTAR 

appearance, talked about his current work at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight 

Center where he is designing computer algorithms for the GPM (Global 

Precipitation Measurement) satellite slated for launch in 2014. He gave 

students a fascinating overview of NASA’s global weather satellites, what 

kinds of data each gathers, and how that data is used. Following his talk 

last year, Dr. Munchak has become an invaluable resource for TJ’s 

Geosystems classes, according to Geosystems teacher Jim Jarvis, who 

stopped by to thank him: “He checks what we’re doing and points us to the 

newest and best data. We rely on specialists like Dr. Munchak to keep us 

current,” he said. 

“Pursue an internship during college. You can see if 

you like the work and can make valuable connections.” 

& Jason Hintz Llopis, TJ ’89, is a Producer with Disney Research, a 

division of the Walt Disney Company with labs at major research 

universities and in the Los Angeles area. Mr. Hintz Llopis told the 

auditorium audience about various current research projects, including: 

“touche,” a sensor that can turn your iPod on or its volume up simply by 

sensing simple movements (or turn your TV off when you fall asleep while 

watching it); “one world cinema,” which is bringing the movie theater 

experience to remote parts of the developing world; and behavioral 

research that aims to alleviate crowding at popular theme park attractions. 

There was something for everyone in this entertaining talk, not to mention 

free pens for correct answers to Disney trivia questions.

NSF DIRECTOR DELIVERS TJSTAR KEYNOTE ADDRESS 

& TJ was very fortunate to have Dr. Subra Suresh, Director of the National 

Science Foundation (NSF), as our tjSTAR keynote speaker. As Dr. 

Suresh explained, NSF was founded in 1950 on the premise that funding 

basic research would lead to innovation, which in turn would ensure the 

NSF Director to TJ students: 

country’s prosperity and national security. The history of NSF has borne 

out that premise. & & 

You are “the future scientists 

& In the 1960’s, NSF funded GPS research, which is now a technology we 

and engineers, future 

leaders” and “future 

economic engine of this 

country.” 

all depend on. In 1995, NSF supported two Stanford students researching 

better Internet search techniques, the result of which was Google Inc. In 

1999, the NSF supported nanotechnology research, and there are now 180 

companies working in that area. And the list goes on. 

& Dr. Suresh is particularly excited about the potential for “citizen science,” 

whereby students and others contribute to data collection and analysis 

from their home computers. He also told students in response to an audience question that the issue of open access to databases 

and publications is “very much on the minds of the senior leadership team at NSF.” His topical and interesting address, 

which opened and closed with specific reference to the role he expects TJ students to play in the country’s future, was the perfect 

end to a special day at TJ. A 5-minute montage of the day’s events can be found at this link:

PARTNERSHIP FUND AWARDS DINNER CELEBRATES TJ STARS 

The day after the Symposium, the Partnership Fund held its annual Awards Dinner at 

Vienna’s Westwood Country Club. The Partnership Fund invited all of the Lab Directors, 

who in turn were each asked to invite a senior from their research lab. Three of those 

students spoke about their research and thanked the PF for providing the tools necessary 

to make that research possible. 

The evening’s keynote speaker, former astronaut and Orbital Sciences Senior Vice 

President, Frank Culbertson (at right), mesmerized the audience with his first-hand 

accounts of Shuttle launches, days spent on the International Space Station, and the 

stories behind the amazing photographs from space that he showed us, including those he 

took of the DC area on 9/11. 

The PF recognized two individuals with “Tommy Awards,” named in honor of Mr. 

Jefferson and given in recognition of outstanding commitment to advancing excellence in 

education. The first was given to Dr. Patrick Gillevet, Professor of Environmental Science 

& Policy at George Mason University, for his exceptional service as mentor and advisor to 

multiple classes of TJ students (pictured below, with Dr. Evan Glazer, TJ Principal, on 

left). Lisa Wu, Oceanography Lab Director, gave a heartfelt tribute that included thanks 

and best wishes from several former Gillevet mentees. 

The PF’s own Mark Skolnik was also awarded a “Tommy” for his 

three years as Chairman of the Board of the Partnership Fund, a period 

of tremendous growth in giving and participation as well as the 

beginning of an exciting new chapter in TJ’s history. Everyone at the PF 

and the School is happy to hear that Mark will remain actively involved 

with the PF. 

The crowd was treated to the latest TJ 2.0 Capital Campaign news: 

Northrop Grumman’s plan to give $250,000 over five years, and the 

intention of TJ’s first graduating class, the Class of ’89, to raise 

$890,000 toward the renovation. At that time, Dr. Glazer asked his 

fiancee, Jennifer Palazzolo, to accompany him as he announced their 

pledge to donate $5,000 a year to the Capital Campaign. The 

exceptional personal commitment that our Principal has made to the 

future welfare of the School is something that should inspire all of us.

ALUMNI SPEAKER SERIES KICKS OFF WITH TJ ’95 GEOSCIENCES PROFESSOR 

& “Part of understanding the Earth’s future lies in the ocean depths,” said Dr. Mea Cook, TJ ’95, to more than thirty-five TJ 

students, parents, and alumni at the inaugural event of TJ Alumni Association’s Speaker Series this past May. As an assistant 

professor of Geosciences at Williams College, Mea studies deep-sea sediments, which she uses to reconstruct climate and ocean 

circulation from the past. “The climate system is linked to the ocean and its effects on patterns of water circulation, heat exchange, 

and carbon dioxide changes in the atmosphere,” she continued. 

& Mea, who obtained her undergraduate 

degree at Princeton and her doctorate at MIT, 

drew on her research career in oceanography 

and the study of prehistoric climate changes, 

known as paleoceanography, to discuss how the 

ocean influences greenhouse gases, such as carbon 

dioxide, in the atmosphere and how we 

may gain a better understanding of what the 

changes in our current climate mean. Some of 

Mea’s findings drew strong reactions from the 

audience. In response to Mea’s prediction that 

the impact of current human emissions may be 

the significant reduction of coral reefs in 60 

years, Ajay Batra, TJ ’95, said, “As an avid scuba 

diver, that struck me hard and has encouraged 

me to consider taking action to protect the 

reefs for our children and their children to see.” 

& The TJ Alumni Speaker Series aims to bring alumni, parents and students together for alumni-led discussions of contemporary 

topics, with an emphasis on STEM fields. “TJ alumni are emerging experts in their fields, and the TJ Alumni Speaker Series 

provides them an opportunity to share those important contributions with their fellow peers and determined TJ students,” said 

Sonal Goda, TJ ’95, President of the TJ Alumni Association. “It’s important that we are able to provide forums like this and 

connect TJ alumni with each other, as well as with the bright leaders of tomorrow studying at TJ today.” 

& “I really appreciated the perspective of a TJ alum,” said Rachel Marzen, TJ ’11. “I see where TJ prepared others in a science 

I’m interested in, paleoclimate science, and what we could possibly do after we graduate.” 

& The Thomas Jefferson Alumni Association plans to continue hosting alumni speakers throughout the year. For more information 

about this and other alumni activities, see the alumni page of our website, tjpartnershipfund.org .

EXXONMOBIL TREATS TJ’S “CRACKERJACK” FACULTY & STAFF 

& “As we entered the stadium, we heard the last notes of the ‘Star Spangled 

Banner’ wafting through the air. The stadium roared to life as the Nats 

took to the field. Magic began moments into the game with two back-toback 

home runs,” wrote Derinda Weber of TJ’s Finance Office, who, along 

with hundreds of TJ faculty, staff, and their friends and families, was treated 

to a sell-out Nats game in early June. 

& For the second year in a row, ExxonMobil generously donated 480 tickets 

to the School. “TJ faculty, family, and friends were in a wonderful section 

of the stadium; a great location to watch the game, relax, and socialize,” 

Ms. Weber gushed. The Partnership Fund is delighted when our corporate 

partners remember our hard-working faculty and staff. Caps off to 

Exxon!

NORTHROP GRUMMAN, EXXONMOBIL DONATIONS EXPAND 

SUMMER TECH INSTITUTE’S REACH 

& TJ’s Summer Middle School Tech Institute has long been known as a great STEM 

camp. Its diverse offerings feature “Cool Chemistry,” “Dissection Connection,” 

“Rocket Man,” and “Web Page Design,” among many others, and the faculty -- which 

this summer includes ten “regular season” TJ teachers -- is terrific. Rusty Hodges, 

Middle School Tech Institute Coordinator, noted that kids were begging him to add 

another week to their schedule so they could take additional classes recommended by 

friends. Unfortunately for the kids, the entire summer’s worth of classes had already 

been sold out for weeks. (A July 27th Washington Post’s Fairfax Edition article about 

the Tech Institute can be found at www.fairfaxtimes.com .) 

& In past years, large numbers of interested area kids were simply unable to attend the 

Tech Institute at all because the fees and transportation costs of approximately $250/ 

week were prohibitive for many families. In 2011, Northrop Grumman changed that 

equation with a very generous $25,000 donation, which enabled 100 students to attend; 

this year, the company repeated that donation. 

In “Dissection Connection,” kids began 

the week taking apart owl pellets, 

moved onto squid dissection, and on 

Friday held their culminating exercise, 

dissecting and then comparing a sheep 

heart with a pig’s. 

& Upon hearing that there would be room this summer for more students, ExxonMobil 

employees arranged to direct all funds raised from this year’s annual employee charity 

golf tournament toward Middle School Tech Institute scholarships. This excellent idea 

allowed another 30 scholarship students to attend. 

& Your company too can “Send a Kid to Camp TJ” by donating toward Summer Middle 

School Tech Institute scholarships. Corporations and individuals are also invited to 

submit proposals for courses they would design and teach. For more information, 

contact Rachael Estep, Partnership Fund Development Manager, at rcestep@fcps.edu 

or 703.750.8317. 

“Web Page Design” students designed 

their own web pages for real or 

imagined businesses. 

In “Rocket Man,” kids designed, built, 

and tested their own rockets. Then on 

Friday, rocket after rocket shot straight 

into the air and parachuted down gently 

onto the football practice field.

GOOGLE SPONSORS COMPUTER SCIENCE TEACHER TRAINING WORKSHOP 

& Thanks to a $25,000 grant from Google Inc., TJ’s computer 

science faculty hosted a week-long training workshop at the 

end of June for teachers from several local jurisdictions, including 

a large contingent of DC public school teachers. 

Google was particularly interested in including teachers from 

the DC public schools because as of the 2011-2012 school year, 

there were no computer science courses available to students 

in that school system. 

& Using a computer science text written by our own Dr. Shane 

Torbert (pictured), Applied Computer Science (Springer 2012), 

the class equipped teachers to present a useful introductory 

programming course that would capture the imagination of, 

and be accessible to, a wide range of students. The book’s instructional 

method, which is the same method used at TJ, engages 

students by using such visuals as interactive graphics and 

image files and keeps them engaged by leveraging the computer’s 

ability to provide immediate feedback. 

& Workshop participants appreciated the opportunity to 

study with TJ’s renowned faculty; some even came back to 

observe our summer Computer Science course in action. 

& "The CS workshop at TJHSST this week has been awesome,” 

said Jeff Elkner, of the Arlington Career Center. He 

added, “. . . It’s much more about computational thinking and 

how to use computer science to solve meaningful problems 

than it is about any particular programming language.” 

& The Partnership Fund’s Corporate Advisory Board is currently 

seeking sponsorships for additional workshops on 

STEM topics of interest to our corporate partners. We commend 

TJ’s remarkable faculty for their willingness to share 

their expertise with area teachers as part of the School’s commitment 

to serve as a leading STEM education resource for 

the region. 

PF HUMANITIES PURCHASE A CLEAR WINNER 

The teacher places the book under the 

document camera, and voila . . . 

The book’s text and artwork are displayed 

for all to see. 

& The Partnership Fund has always 

understood that important equipment 

comes in many shapes and sizes, and not 

every item need be used for research. 

The latest purchase for the Humanities 

Department is a perfect example. Donations 

to the PF’s “Enrichment Fund,” the 

fund earmarked for non-lab use, have 

made possible the $5,450 purchase of ten 

document cameras, wonderful devices 

that enable clear, readable displays of 

text, artwork, photos, notes, transparencies, 

and more. 

& In science classes where the devices 

were already in use this past school year, 

students report that transparencies are 

much clearer since the old overhead projector 

was replaced by the document 

camera. “I can finally see the board 

without having to move to the front 

row,” said one delighted student. Now 

those benefits will be felt throughout 

TJ’s second floor as well. 

& With its flexible gooseneck, features 

that allow it to double as a camera, scanner, 

and webcam, its ability to display 

video, and its portability, the document 

camera is a revolutionary advance over 

the bulky, low-tech overhead projectors 

that TJ parents may recall from their 

high-school days. 

& Dr. Denise Castaldo, Humanities 

Division Manager and English Chair, 

stated, “We’re very grateful to the Partnership 

Fund for providing us with portable, 

lightweight document cameras. 

Teachers will be able to sign them out as 

needed and can travel from classroom to 

classroom with them. While they have a 

number of uses, document cameras will 

be particularly helpful to us when teaching 

writing, as students and teacher can 

write, revise, and annotate on the spot 

and then share that work with the entire 

class.”

TJHSST Partnership Fundʼs United Way “Expense Ratio” for the 2010-2011 fiscal year is 7.78%. 

We have made every effort to ensure that the Annual Fund Donor List includes everyone who contributed to the Thomas Jefferson 

Partnership Fund during the 2011-2012 fiscal year. (Please note that many United Way/CFC gifts are reported to us without donor 

information and that matching gifts are often received months after the initial gift.) Gifts received after June 30, 2012 will be recognized 

in our 2012-2013 Donor List. To correct any errors or omissions, please contact Rachael Estep, Development Manager, in the 

Partnership Fund Office at 703.750.8317; rcestep@fcps.edu.
