On the personal side

A Long Island native, Michael loves traveling. He’s taken his travel companion—a pup named Buddy—to six states so far. He’s also a sports and fitness kind of guy. A weightlifter who’s into nutrition, he considered a career in physical therapy at one time. Golf, basketball, and surfing have also captured his interest. He’s surfed beside a seal in the Hamptons, but has yet to get barreled by a wave.

What Michael brings to the table

Chicken cutlets—plus a delicious fruit platter that’s hopefully produced from his own garden one day!
