Hi, I’m Michael.

I am a copywriter, strategic thinker and creative mind. I’ve solved problems for clients like Honda, Disney and Farmers Insurance. And while it’s easy to get cynical in this industry, I genuinely love what I do.

I am currently a senior copywriter at Zillow, where our mission is to make home a reality for more people. I’ve also guest lectured on creativity at USC. Apologies to my alma mater.

You can learn a lot about someone from their unpopular opinions. I’ll go first: the Star Wars prequels aren’t bad, oatmeal raisin cookies are delicious and it’s more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow.
