Sergey Brin Life

Sergey Mikhaylovich Brin (born August 21, 1973) is an American computer scientist and Internet entrepreneur.

He co-founded Google together with Larry Page.

Brin was the president of Google's parent company Alphabet Inc. until he resigned on December 3, 2019.

Alphabet's controlling shareholders, Brin and Larry Page, will remain.

Brin is the 10th richest person in the world as of October 2019, with a net worth of US$53.8 billion.

He earned his bachelor's degree at the University of Maryland, College Park, following in his father and grandfather's footsteps by studying mathematics, as well as computer science.

He enrolled in Stanford University to earn a doctorate in computer science after graduation.

He discovered Page, with whom he developed a web search engine, on the Web.

Stanford's PhD students were welcomed, but they were unable to start Google in Susan Wojcicki's garage in Menlo Park, and they were unable to begin Google.

Early life and education

Brin was born in Moscow, 1973, to Russian Jewish parents, Mikhail and Eugenia Brin, both graduates of Moscow State University (MSU). His father is a retired mathematics professor at the University of Maryland, and his mother is a scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.

The Brin family lived in a three-bedroom apartment in central Moscow, which they also shared with Sergey's paternal grandmother. Mikhail Brin, a student at the Warsaw, Poland, in 1977, decided that the family had to immigrate. They first applied for their exit visa in September 1978, and as a result, his father was "promptly fired." His mother had to abandon her career for similar reasons. For the next eight months, they were forced to take on temporary jobs as they waited, afraid that their request would be denied as it was for many refuseniks. They were granted official exit visas and were allowed to leave the country in May 1979.

With support from Anatole Katok, the Brin family lived in Vienna and Paris, while Mikhail Brin obtained a teaching position at the University of Maryland. The Brin family received assistance from the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society during this period. They arrived in the United States on October 25, 1979.

Brin attended elementary school at Paint Branch Montessori School in Adelphi, Maryland, but he received further education at home; his father, a professor in the University of Maryland's mathematics department, encouraged him to study mathematics, and his family assisted him in maintaining his Russian-language skills. He attended Eleanor Roosevelt High School, Maryland. Brin began his Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Maryland in September 1990, where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in computer science and mathematics at the University of Maryland. He worked at Wolfram Research, the mathematica's programmers.

Brin began his graduate work in computer science at Stanford University as a result of a National Science Foundation graduate fellowship, earning a M.S. degree. In 1995, the first computer science research was published. He was on leave from Stanford's PhD research as of 2008.

Personal life

Brin is Jewish and not religious.

Anne Wojcicki, a biotech analyst and entrepreneur, married Brin in the Bahamas in May 2007. They had a son in late 2008 and a daughter in late 2011. Following Brin's extramarital affair with Google Glass' marketing director Amanda Rosenberg, it was revealed that Brin and his wife were living separately in August 2013. Brin and Wojcicki divorced in June 2015, a very sad event.

Nicole Shanahan, a legal tech entrepreneur, married him on November 7, 2018. They have a daughter who was born in late 2018. Brin and Shanahan divorced on December 15, 2021, and Brin filed for divorce on January 4, 2022. According to a Wall Street Journal article, the catalyst for their split was an affair between Shanahan and Elon Musk, which Musk and Shanahan denied.

Eugenia, Brin's mother, has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. In 2008, he decided to make a donation to the University of Maryland School of Medicine, where his mother's mother is undergoing medical care.

Although divorced, Brin and Wojcicki are also run The Brin Wojcicki Foundation. They have contributed to The Michael J.'s Foundation in a major way. In 2009, the Fox Foundation raised $1 million to benefit the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society.

Brin is a contributor to Democratic Party candidates and organizations, having contributed $5,000 to Barack Obama's reelection bid and $30,800 to the DNC.

Brin became interested in blockchain technology after his son's builder a gaming computer to mine Ethereum, according to CNBC.

Why there's still plenty to be gained from Google

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 17, 2024
The company split its stock in 2014, with the new shares starting at $28. But if you put $100 in, on its first day of trading on August 19, 2004, your shares would now be worth as much as $6,294. By the time it floated in 2004, Google was clocking up more than 200 million searches a day. Fast forward to 2024 and Google processes 8.5 billion searches daily - or 99,000 a second. So should you invest now, in the hope of more growth - or have you left it too late?

The unsuspecting garage home that gave birth to one of the most powerful companies ever built - as it's owner dies aged 56 following tragic final year

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 11, 2024
Susan Wojcicki gave space in her garage at her then-new home in Menlo Park to Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page (inset). The move was one of good faith - made by a woman who would eventually surface as the firm's longest-serving employees, and one of the highest-profile female Silicon Valley executives to date. At the time, the search engine was just a prospect -  but Wojcicki was so excited by the potential of Brin and Page's plans, she quit her marketing job at Intel on the spot.

Google launches its St George's Doodle to celebrate England's patron saint... but misses out one key detail

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 23, 2024
In fact, the last time the cross of St George was used on a Google Doodle was back in 2019. Various depictions of the legend of St George have since been featured, with interpretations of the dragon, the English rose and George himself. The story of St George dates back to the Middle Ages when Crusaders returned to England to share his tale of bravery and sacrifice. They claimed he was a hero who saved a princess, chosen as a tribute by the King to satisfy a dragon's endless hunger.
