I met Michael at Cornell, where we both were grad students. While studying economics, Michael dreamed of becoming an artist. Upon completing his Master's degree and working for Microsoft for five years, he pursued his dream and started painting. He's a full-time artist now. As for me, I dreamt of becoming a filmmaker also while studying economics, and well...I'm still dreaming.

This past year, Michael had a huge boost in his career with a show at the National Academy of Science in Washington, DC. Quoting them "Michael likens his canvas to a chalkboard, where he creates paintings consisting of layers of mathematical notations and illustrations that describe the form and motion of three-dimensional geometric shapes."
