Michael Shewarega

I am currently finishing my M.Sc. in Electrical & Computer Engineering at RWTH Aachen University.

From 2024 to 2025, I was at Harvard SEAS and Harvard Medical School, developing interactive frameworks to analyze brain networks and spatial biology.

Before that, I studied software and AI at TU Delft, built surgical assistance tools at Stryker, and prototyped industrial applications at Fraunhofer for P&G and Airbus.

My focus is on software engineering, applied machine learning, and visual computing.

Outside of work, I enjoy tennis, basketball, piano, reading, and riddles.
