Hi, Michael here.
This site is my personal online home - a place to share what I’m exploring, building, and learning.
In 2021, I started writing and learning in public. That journey pulled me into the creator economy — and into the deeper question behind creators and founders:
who are you really? And what are you here to build?
Since then:
I’ve taught “How to Start a Startup” and tech product management at Rice University.
I launched a Personal Monopoly Accelerator to help people clarify their identity and direction.
I served as Entrepreneur-in-Residence in Write of Passage. where I ran a Creator Accelerator to help top students grow their audiences and offerings.
I built and refined Personal Cartography, a program that helps high-potential individuals map who they are, what drives them, and how to pursue their best opportunities.
What I’m Working On Now
I’m focused on helping creators and founders get radically clear on their identity, strategy, and creative direction—especially when they’re at an inflection point or exploring what’s next.
If you’re navigating a transition—or guiding others through one—I’d love to connect.
