Michael comes to the program with a background in urban planning and river activism. He served for three years on the Madison Plan Commission and is a founding member of Friends of Starkweather Creek, in Madison. He is also a professional photographer.
Michael grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, (in the Huron River watershed). He traces his interest in water issues back to the 1980s, when he volunteered with one of the country's first citizen water quality monitoring programs and was then sent as a student representative on the Icewalk north pole expedition.
Michael will be working out of the Wisconsin Association of Lakes office in Madison. He'll generally be in the office Mon-Thurs 8:30 to 12:30, and some Fridays. You can reach him here:
