Hi I'm Mike, currently working as a Software Engineer at Bardel Entertainment Inc. I'm part of a small team developing software solutions to improve the performance and stability of a CG production pipeline.
Before finding Computer Science I was working in public practice accounting. Seeking a challenge, I decided to leave my position and go back to school. At first, I found myself interested in Math and Physics but then discovered Computer Science. I love the challenge it provides and the satisfaction of building something.
While completing my undergraduate degree I was lucky enough to experience academic research. I worked in a subfield of network theory called graphlets. This lead me to develop an application that can calculate various graphlet-based network statistics. The program is still being used by some researchers at my old university and I still tinker and improve the program when I have time to help out.
