Michael was an incredible dancer, teacher, and choreographer whose career included cruise ships, theater, TV, Radio City, and The Metropolitan Opera. When he wasn’t performing, he was teaching and choreographing all over the country as a Fosse/Verdon Legacy protégé paying forward his love of dance to the next generation of performers.

Michael was not only a talented performer but an amazing human and friend. His smile lit up a room, his humor would keep you laughing for hours, and his kindness was what everyone fell in love with. Michael was the real deal: honest, thoughtful, insightful, and beautiful. He will truly be missed by everyone who knew him, but his memory will live on forever. 

Michael, we know you are dancing among the stars. Until we meet again.
