Michael’s earliest memories include poring over the road atlas on family trips on the way to various events. Immersive experiences—and how to get there—captivated him from a young age and have since grown into a career and passion he loves to share. Born and raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and now calling Atlanta home for 20 years, Michael’s professional background includes extensive knowledge spanning hospitality operations across food and beverage, transportation and event logistics. Early opportunities to join teams and deliver lasting impressions affirmed Michael’s deep appreciation for the relevance of the industry. From intimate meetings to massive activations, he wholeheartedly believes in the power of human connection and finds nothing more rewarding than helping produce meaningful, shared experiences. Away from work, Michael enjoys spending time with family and friends, seeing live music, and taking camping trips.
