Michael is an attorney and works in Center City thus you can usually find him everyday waiting for the R3 at the restored Lansdowne train station chatting with fellow commuters or reading his newspaper. On the weekend, he usually can be found enjoying a coffee at the local café catching up on work or chatting with fellow customers. Michael is a Freemason and a Shriner and believes in the value of public service having grown up in Boy Scouts and earning the prestigious Eagle Scout Award. Michael is also a trustee of the Garden Church.
