Michael is dedicated to bringing the benefits of meditation to as many people as possible. He produces, writes, and co-creates contemplative practices that merge contemporary scientific understandings of consciousness with traditional Buddhist frameworks of the mind.

At Healthy Minds Innovations, Michael helps lead the Program Development team in creating, iterating, and distributing content through the Healthy Minds Program App, research programs, and public offerings.

Michael has been practicing meditation for over 18 years. He studied in monastic and lay settings throughout the US and South East Asia including a Fulbright Scholarship Nepal. He produced and wrote meditations for some of the leading mindfulness apps as well as teaching meditation in classrooms, monasteries, and corporate settings around the world. Michael hopes to continue developing his craft to cultivate a more wise, compassionate, and engaged world.
