A native of Nashville, Michael was born at Vanderbilt's own Children's Hospital and grew up with his two brothers not far from campus. He attended the University of Notre Dame (Go Irish), where he studied chemical and biomolecular engineering. Following college, he spent a year as a volunteer in Grainger County, Tennessee, working largely in home repair and food pantries for the local community. He left the mountains of East Tennessee for New York City to study at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons. Never able to shake their Tennessee Homesick Blues (h/t Dolly), Michael and his wife, Christy, a critical care nurse and fellow Nashvillian, along with their young daughter, Clare, could not be happier to return home and provide care for the community.
