After growing up in the barren wastelands of Minnesota, I live in Maryland with my wife Elizabeth and our dog Molly. I love to understand how the microscopic world bubbles up into everyday life, and then how to use that in cool systems. I love Chemistry, Physics, Chemical and Engineering, with both formal and ad hoc education.

My name is Mikael.
