Personal life

4 Snaps

Michael started programming and published his first app under his own company at the age of 13. At the age of 16, Michael developed an app named “4 Snaps”, a turn-based game which gave the user a choice of words, allowed them to take four pictures based on the word they picked, and then sent over to the opponent player to guess what the word was, based on the pictures taken. Michael released the app in 2013 and by the year after, had managed to achieve over one million downloads.[2]

Reception

Michael has been featured by multiple news outlets around the world, including CNN en Español, NBC News, Fox Business and ABC News. From the over a dozen apps he has launched, “4 Snaps” was received with mostly positive reviews. More than four million individual games have been started within “4 Snaps” since its inception.
