A native of Charleston, South Carolina, Michael's formative years were spent in Omaha, Nebraska, where the seeds of his passion for acting were first sown. His early days were filled with the joy of performing on stage, a experience he cherishes to this day, courtesy of his involvement with his local community theatre.
As he entered adulthood, Michael made the bold decision to relocate to the bustling metropolis of New York City, where he honed his craft and immersed himself in the city's vibrant theatre scene. However, after a stint in the Big Apple, Michael's life took a dramatic turn when he moved to Greensboro, North Carolina.
It was in this new environment that Michael's career as an actor began to flourish, and he found himself propelled to new heights of success. Despite his continued involvement in the acting world, Michael's greatest source of pride and fulfillment has come from his role as a devoted father to his two precious children, Grace and Isaac.
