About Me


​Welcome! My name is Michael Wang and I received my PhD in social and personality psychology from Northeastern University under my advisor, Dr. Judith Hall.

In 2012, I graduated Rutgers University summa cum laude in psychology. A year later, I enrolled in the counseling psychology program at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign for the next two years before transferring to the social and personality psychology program at Northeastern University in 2015.

In my spare time, I like to learn accents, play bass guitar, and practice Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. 


*As of November 2020*

I am working at Facebook as a full time quantitative UX researcher.

I am looking for a new Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym in the city.

I am training my puppy not to pee in the apartment.
