Michael along with his brother and father launched SubGravity in 2014. SubGravity, a technical manufacturer and distributor, emerged out of a desire to safely explore and experience the underwater world in some of the most extreme and demanding environments imaginable.

Michel is involved in several ongoing cave exploration projects in Utah and is currently the co-project leader of the Main Drain diving project. Although his passion for rebreathers has him diving CCR whenever practical, Michael can be found deep inside a cave using whatever means to further the exploration.

When not diving, Michael works on music or spending time with his wife and four children.
