Michael’s strongest areas are combining frontend and backend development with practical ML and AI integration, particularly in projects that require an end-to-end product rather than an isolated model. He built a deepfake-detection tool from start to finish, using blink detection as part of its approach to identifying manipulated media. Michael revisited and evolved the project as deepfake technology changed, demonstrating an interest in keeping technical work responsive to an evolving problem space. His background also includes Python and SQL data-quality experience. After a layoff, Michael strengthened his portfolio work, including the deepfake-detection project. He is particularly well aligned with Python-focused roles while bringing complementary React, SQL, full-stack, ML-pipeline, and AI-integration capabilities. ## Highlights - Built an end-to-end deepfake-detection tool, demonstrating full-stack, machine-learning, and AI-integration capabilities. - Used blink detection as part of a deepfake-identification approach. - Revisited and evolved a deepfake-detection project as deepfake technology changed. - Built experience across React frontends, Python backends, ML pipelines, and AI integration. - Developed strong Python skills. - Gained SQL experience, including data-quality work. - Strengthened portfolio work after a layoff, including the deepfake-detection project. - Brings a pragmatic fit for Python-focused roles while also offering React and SQL experience. ## FAQ ### What does Michael do?
