Michael received a B.S. in Architecture at the University of Virginia and a Master of Architecture at the University of Michigan, and is currently a Master of Landscape Architecture candidate at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design.
Michael’s work engages the production of waste and contamination remediation as generative urban processes.
