His career started out in the medical field where he worked for over a decade as an medical administrator and in early 2000’s he was selected to attend Stetson University College of Law, consistently picked as the best trial law school in the country where he graduated in 2004.
Upon graduation, Michael was hired by the State Attorney’s Office for the 6th Judicial Circuit in Pinellas-Pasco County where he gained invaluable experience with handling thousands of cases and countless jury trials.
