Described by the New Music Connoisseur as utterly masterful, and Chamber Music Today as having superb technique, he has collaborated with Pulitzer Prize winning composers and has over 50 compositions written and dedicated to him.
Michael received his Doctorate and Distinguished Alumni Award from the University of North Carolina Greensboro, his Bachelors and Alumni Achievement Award from Ball State University, and his Masters Degree from the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. His teachers include Scott Rawls, Michelle LaCourse, Peter Kamnitzer, and the Tokyo and LaSalle string quartets.
