Hi! I am Eichel (pronounced as Michael without the M), majoring in Information Systems and Human-Computer Interaction with a double minor in Global Systems and Management & Politics and Public Policy. I have a cute little doggo and love to walk with my AirPods on during the sunny Pittsburgh days.


My multicultural and multifaceted background helps me understand where people are coming from, and I would like to hear more about you whether you are having your highest highs or lowest lows. Before talking to you as an Academic Coach, I'll be your friend, a person to talk to, and a person you could hang out with!


I am also part of multiple student organizations either as a board member or a general body member, and I can share with you how being part of clubs helps in general. I hope to help you strategize your plans and handle stress better to enjoy our upcoming warm sunny days!
