What People Are Saying
“Michael recently spoke to our company’s North American organization about the LGBTQ+ community and the importance of allyship. He brought a thoughtful balance of humor and education to the table, creating a forum where employees could gain a better understanding of important topics such as the difference between sexual and gender identity and the ways they can best support LGBTQ+ colleagues in the workplace. We would definitely recommend Michael to any organization interested in elevating its awareness and support of LGBTQ+ issues.”
Tyler Fields

“I was fortunate to have had an opportunity to hear Michael speak on diversity, inclusion, and equity while attending a national sports forum. These issues are so important for any workplace, business, or not-for-profit. When our organization decided we wanted to expand our understanding in these areas, we turned to Michael because I truly believe he’s one of the best in the country. Informative, engaging, and extremely personable, Michael was an exceptional facilitator, and our team gained a lot of important knowledge from our sessions with him.”
