Michael is the Willy Wonka of songwriting coaches, a skilled host, and a motivator who helped hundreds of artists along their path through his workshops and mentoring. He is committed to deepening that journey with Write Songs You Love.

He has literally walked over 4,000 miles of Canada over an 8-year tour called “I’d Rather Walk,” sharing songs and encouraging others to share their stories on his way. Michael specializes in boutique songwriting for special occasions, group workshops for artists or businesses, and community building.
