Michael is a senior at Caltech, majoring in Mechanical Engineering. This fall he entered the Master's program in Geophysics, which is part of the B.S./M.S. program for undergraduate students at Caltech. Michael is from Richmond, Virginia and after attending Caltech's pre-frosh weekend, he knew Caltech was the best fit for him. This past summer, Michael worked on acoustic emission experiments at Schlumberger in Salt Lake City. When he is not working on magnetostratigraphy or tutoring at the Hixen Writing Center, he is working on an electric-powered go-kart for the Society of Automotive Engineers "Formula SAE" competition.
