To whom it may concern: I am delighted to give my highest recommendation to Curtis Miller who interned at our law firm, Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, in 2013. During that time, Curtis worked closely with me on a number of financial services projects, including the reform of money market mutual funds. His work was of the quality that one would expect from an experienced Capitol Hill Legislative Assistant or an established associate in a law firmnot that of the college junior that he is. In my 18 years at Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, I have never known an intern with Curtiss special combination of analytic ability, passion for academic excellence and straightforward work ethic. Curtis has a superb background in both economics and political science and a talent for mathematical expression that will allow him to grow tremendously in both of these fields. In addition, he is both a quick and extremely articulate writer. Whether he chooses to pursue a Ph.D. and then an academic career or to use his skills in more applied fields, I am confident that Curtis will excel in any set of endeavors he chooses. In my career at a major law firm, earlier as an Assistant Secretary in the U.S. Treasury, and a professor at both Georgetown and Texas A&M Universities, I have had the opportunity to interact with and often mentor countless numbers of young men and women. Without a doubt, Curtis ranks in the top one percent of those individuals. Whoever has the privilege of having Curtis as a student in or an employee will soon come to the same conclusion. I recommend him as strongly as possible without any reservation whatsoever. Sincerely,

Michael B. Levy, Ph.D Policy Director
