When I was a kid, I created a recipe that took the culinary world by storm.

OK, fine, it was basically just a calzone. But my parents went along with it and we called it “Michael’s Dinner” for years.

I’ve always been trying to create something new, whether it’s artwork, short stories, scripts, my own choreography to Britney Spears songs, and now, ad campaigns. My hope is that with “Michael’s Portfolio,” I’ve created something even more unique than “Michael’s Dinner.”

I love observing people and thinking about what makes them tick. When you figure that out, you can tell a story that moves them to laughter, to tears, or maybe even both.

And if you need someone to help you rebrand the calzone, I’m your guy.

Fun Fact: I take Halloween very seriously. Some of my past costumes include Nosferatu, Jack Skellington (but not your Party City Jack Skellington, let’s be clear) and disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes. Go ahead and give me a follow on Instagram to see the photos.
