Michael was born and raised in Ann Arbor, MI. He studied Mathematics Education at Miami University from 1997-2001. Upon graduating, he worked as a high school math teacher in Barrington, IL for four years. Michael left Barrington in 2005 and taught high school math overseas for two year in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates at a private American School.
His winemaking career began when he left the Emirates and came home to work with his parents on the family farm. In 2007, home from overseas, he started working for Larry Mawby. In early 2008, Michael went to Marlborough, New Zealand to work at a custom winemaking facility. Since his return from New Zealand in May 2008, Michael has worked with Larry Mawby, who taught him how to make sparkling wines.
In addition to his work at MAWBY, Michael also owns a boutique brand of wines with his brother Peter called bigLITTLE Wines. These two projects keep Michael very busy. However, in his free time Michael enjoys cooking, running, biking, swimming, playing ice hockey, golf, canoeing, hiking and hanging out with his wife and two sons.
