PRODUCER - Film, TV, Commercials
“Michael is a true professional through and through. Packed with poise, positivity, and multitasking ability, he coordinated one of the most complicated live tv shoots I’ve ever been a part of, and he made it look easy. Six roaming camera crews, a team of twelve PA’s, nine hundred plus competitors, network execs looking over his shoulder...and he never flinched. He has an ironclad work ethic and the caliber of natural leadership that brings out the best in everyone around him. Bring Michael onboard and he’ll be the best line item on your budget.”
