About

Currently pursuing his Master’s in Computer Science at Virginia Tech, Michael is a data engineer with a knack for building things that actually work (and occasionally surprise you). Previously, he helped L’Oréal personalize product recommendations for millions of users—so yes, your skincare routine might have his fingerprints on it. Now, he’s diving headfirst into the world of AI as the team lead of an AI-powered coding interviewer project. Think of it as a digital interviewer that never sleeps, judges fairly, and doesn’t get coffee breaks. With a passion for clean architecture and a slight obsession with latency, Michael is always on the hunt for the next great engineering challenge—with a keyboard in one hand and a bubble tea in the other.
