Bio

Michael found power soccer 16 years ago by fate from a former teammate. He was at his sister’s softball game when approached by a parent whose son played. From that moment on, Michael’s career in the sport has accelerated. He has won two World Cup titles and considers those the ultimate prize in power soccer. Michael was born with Arthrogryposis which affects his joints. He graduated from Purdue University with a Bachelor Degree in Aeronautical Technology. He is currently employed with HatWorld.  Michael enjoys spending time with his wife Alyssa, his son Brantley and daughter Cayley.

“To play on the biggest stage, to play for my country, to win. That's what I'm here for.”
