Subjects? Fire Behavior, High-Rise Firefighting and Technical Rescue, which is one of his specialties. In 2023 and 2024, Michael presented at the IFIW – International Fire Instructors Workshop. 

Michael has as the heart of a warrior, however, he also cares deeply about other fire departments and their personnel.
