About Michael

I am an alumnus of the 7th cohort of Schwarzman Scholars at Tsinghua University, where I earned a Master of Management Science in Global Affairs between 2022-23 and was selected from a competitive pool of 3,000+ applicants (<5% acceptance rate). I'm currently working as a Public Health Fellow at SwipeRx, the largest digital network of pharmacies across Southeast Asia. I previously worked as a Senior Data Analyst with the Utah Supreme Court's Office of Legal Services and as a Research Assistant at the United Nations in China. I thrive at the very edge of my comfort zone, enjoy taking calculated risks in life and career, and more often than not have taken the road less traveled. I'm an avid high-altitude mountaineer (7,500m+), have done the world's highest bungee jump (233m) six times, and have lived, worked, and traveled across every major region of the world. I'm thrilled to share the lessons I've learned along the way and to empower the next generation of future leaders to prepare for graduate programs that will help to propel their lives and careers towards achieving impact in whichever area they choose.
