A former professional golfer, Michael has lived in Florida for more than twenty years and on the barrier island since 2011, and has spent most of his career selling inside John's Island. He was Vero Beach's top-ranked agent in 2026 by MLS volume.
He is a partner in The Exclusive Group at Douglas Elliman, Florida's top-producing team, and works with a small team of his own: Drew Bottalico on sales, Susan Decker on transactions.
