He was employed at Simplex/Grinnell from 1999 - 2016 programming, installing, and diagnosing commercial fire alarm systems and went on to work for Wolf Creek/Chugach Federal Services in 2016 as a fire alarm systems mechanic.

Michael enjoyed life through simple pleasures: spending time with family and friends, working on cars, attending car shows, and racing in autocross. Michael excelled at autocross winning National championships and various local events. He was always available to help others with a patient attitude and smiling face.  The "go-to-fix-it-man," Michael was one of the best at anything mechanical. He had a kind heart towards animals and loved his two cats, Lucy and Pepper.  Michael was truly one of a kind and a brother to many. Shortly before his illness, Michael met and fell in love with his angel, Valerie Farret. She remained by his side each day through his struggles and tears, helping and nurturing him. Michael passed away on their six month anniversary and shortly after their marriage on January 21, 2018.
