Michael performs, creates and teaches around the globe as a dancer and musician for stage and live television. His genius lies in conceptualizing and designing original performance pieces where rhythm meets music, movement and theater. A citizen of the world, Michael believes in freedom of thought, loves nature and human-nature.

Michael specializes in instrumental percussion, body-percussion and beatbox. Also a dancer, actor and clown, he has created with Franco Dragone (Cirque de Soleil), Giuliano Peparini (Le Rêve, Las Vegas) and the Mayumana company in award winning shows. In the last 15 years he has performed in theaters, arenas and on TV around the world in front of millions of spectators. His performance highlights include: "The Han Show" by Franco Dragone (Wuhan, China), "The Voca People" (Off-Broadway, Lucile Lortel Award), "1789 – Les Amants de la Bastille" by Giuliano Peparini (Paris, France, Crystal Globe Award), "Momentum" by Mayumana (Broadway, Israel's Theater Award), "The House Of Dancing Waters" by Franco Dragone (Macau, China). Today Michael is based in New York.

As a professional beatboxer, Michael has lent his musical and rhythmical beats to various projects with other world class musicians and dancers. His unique experience in theatre, as a musician and as a dancer allows him to weave vocal rhythm seamlessly into various contexts. He has worked the New York scene opening for a Sting concert and collaborating with vocalist Michael Winslow (Police Academy) as part of an award winning off-broadway A-Capella show, as well as performing the live Red Bull New Year Gala in Biejing, China.
