Welcome to the home page of Michael Ogawa. I am a software engineer at YouTube working on personalization.

I graduated with a Ph.D. in Computer Science from UC Davis in March, 2011. I was a member of VIDI, the Visualization & Interface Design Innovation group. My primary research interest was in information visualization, specifically software visualization. Most people know me from my work on code_swarm.
