    “I've had the immense pleasure of working with Michael on a few events and would implore anyone interested in promoting queer history, building community, and fostering empowerment to do the same! Michael's ability to connect our collective queer history to the happenings of today, his breadth of knowledge, and his passion for queer visibility and storytelling has inspired me and my peers to understand the power we have. Michael really has brought the light and has energized us to action.”

  • Authentic & uplifting.

    “Michael came to our small, private school to share his presentation on LGBTQ+ history, LGBTQ+ trailblazers, and his own coming out story with our middle and upper school students (grades 6-12). To say he was a hit is an understatement! His presentation was incredibly cohesive, the message was clear, and the presentation style was so authentic and uplifting, while integrating extremely important historical material. I recommend Michael highly!”

    -Jes C., Brimmer & May School

From the initial outreach to the speech itself, Michael was not only an engaging and collaborative partner but also brought his authentic self to this talk, which greatly benefited our attendees' experience.”

    -Bram S, NODA Annual Conference
