Mike won the local Charles Trombley Award for writing the One-Act Play, A Single Bullet (which dealt with mature content around teen pregnancy and suicide).Directly after High School, Mike began working for Will Vinton Studios as the youngest full-time sculptor they had ever hired.
Mike worked on a Gravy Dog Food spot, The California Raisin's special -- Meet The Raisins, and the highlight, Michael Jackson's Moonwalker. Mike sculpted the only likeness of the King of Pop in the "Speed Demon" sequence of the film.
All of this in just one summer before it was time to head to college in the Fall.Southern Oergon State College (now Southern Oregon University) in Ashland, Oregon was a jump in the quality of his work surrounded by one of the most talented groups of students the college had ever seen including Supernatural's Kim Rhodes, and Ty Burrell of Modern Family (Ty starring in Mike's written, directed, and produced short film, Brett & Dave).
His first short, House For Sale, had a cameo from a very famous childhood influence, Emilio Delgado (Luis from Sesame Street), which went on to be a Best of the Year Short at the Cracked Lens Film Festival.
