Michael has the honor of being chosen to serve on the Digital Media Executive Advisory Board, and on the Board of Directors for Canopy Ethiopia. When not “making the logo bigger” he can be found watching MLS or Premier League Football, cooking out, exploring new wines, reading, or indulging his fine art side. He currently resides in the Washington, DC suburb of Columbia, Maryland with his son Christopher and Jack Russell terrier, Leo.
