Michael's Story
Life...
What a long strange trip it has been. Indeed. It's been a pretty ...um...interesting ... journey for me.
Right out of high school, off I went to pursue the life of a rock guitar player, anyone who knew me at the time wasn't surprised....it led me all over the west coast playing in different bands in pursuit of finding the right bunch of guys to do that whole "rock star dream thing" with.... However, delusions of grandeur are expensive, and knowing little more than playing a shreddin' guitar about the music business, I found myself back in Tri Cities within three years for a little downtime, collect my thoughts, and to figure my next plan. During my hiatus, I continued to play guitar, but in conjunction with that, I attended Washington State University where I majored in Nuclear Technology and European/Asian History.
After attaining a degree, I then went to work for Battelle PNL, and ended up working in laser physics...things happen sometimes that you don't expe...Expand for more
ct I guess, who would have thought?.
After being sidetracked for a few years in Tri Cities working in "The Area", I moved to Portland for an engineering position with a high tech company. After a few years of doing that, it was back to LA, where I now work for a military aerospace contractor as well as do guitar and acting....it's in my blood to stay. Up until recently, I lived in Beverly Hills, but now reside in Burbank, about a block from NBC and The Tonight Show, and a few blocks from the Warner Brothers and Disney/ ABC film lots. I love to ride the Harley through Burbank and Hollywood on any given afternoon. My friends and I ride most every Sunday, usually out to Malibu and back. I have a son, Christian, who is the light in my life....my world really. A pretty special little guy.
This Cliffs Notes version of the past 25+ years leaves out all the adventure, and there has been a lot of it....oh God yes...lots and lots of it...
But that is a tale for another time. :)
