In 1981, Michael's mom brought him to an open-call audition in his native San Francisco. Being the first of seven kids chosen from a packed room of several hundred young asian attendees, Michael was oblivious as to what was going on. He even said "Mom...who's this Yul Brynner guy?" He got his feet wet immediately when he was casted for a year as one of the 6 princes for the "King and I" musical at San Francisco's Orpheum Theater. More than a year after the contract's end, he re-auditioned for understudy to Yul Brynner's headstrong heir "Chulalongkorn." He toured with the cast around the North East to the culmination on Broadway and he finally got to play the role of the Crown Prince in 1985-86.

After a long hiatus during his teen years, Michael moved down to Southern California to start from scratch and revive his acting career. He has done stand-up and is trying to also utilize his years of training in Improv, Acting, Dancing, Singing and Martial Arts. He plays Poker part-time to pay for his headshots as he continues to seek steady work. His Mom worries about his chosen aspirations, but he says to her......."You're the one that got me into this!!...and I started to like it."
