Whether it was his music industry career that saw him become a member of the National Academy Of Recording Arts And Sciences for the Grammys and a member of the Canadian Academy Of Recording Arts And Science for the Junos, to being named the Alumni of Distinction for Business by Algonquin College in 2021, Michael has always been motivated to succeed.
