Notably, Michael is among the rare few to be admitted to Yale's prestigious Artist Diploma program for percussionists, underscoring his extraordinary skill and commitment. Additionally, Michael dedicates part of his year to educating budding musicians in Hong Kong, further expanding his impact beyond performance.
