After a career in full-time law enforcement and then various corporate gigs including a stint as a CEO, he now devotes most of his time to songwriting as well as volunteering as a Reserve Deputy Sheriff, serving as a Negotiator on the SWAT team. He divides his time between Nashville and Tulsa and co-writes with several Nashville writers and works with various publishers and producers. Michael performs often at writer's nights in Nashville and venues across the country, and has had several indie cuts as well as a cut as an artist with a song about hurricane Katrina called "The Big Easy Got It Hard" on Australian Label Blue Pie's Hurricane Healing Volume 4. "A Little More Mine" is a single release for an up and coming artist and “Airstream Beauty Queen” and “Shot of Grace” have also been recorded by artists shopping for a record deal. Several of his songs are under publishing contracts in Nashville for country artists and a few in Los Angeles for television and film. In addition to writing, Michael also produces artists within the country, pop and Americana genres at Aristar Studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma. His song "Shot of Grace", written with Jesse McRae and John Foster was recently featured on the Charlie Monk Show on Sirius Satellite radio… Michael was recently selected as a scholarship recipient for the Skip Ewing Horse and Writer program and will travel to Wyoming to participate in the event. www.horseandwriter.com
