Appointed 2025

Michael brings a thoughtful and knowledgeable approach to college counseling, rooted in a 36-year career in education. He has taught English and German in Texas, Germany, and Colombia, including 15 years at Colegio Bolivar, a bilingual college-preparatory school in Cali, Colombia, where he served as College Counselor and taught English. Michael has visited more than 450 universities across the US and throughout the world. In 2008, he was one of only two international counselors invited by Pepperdine University to participate in their admissions selection process. In addition to his work in college counseling, Michael has taught Theory of Knowledge in the IB program at L.D. Bell High School in Texas, and coached varsity golf for 14 years at two Texas high schools.

Reflecting on what drew Michael to CRMS, he shared: “CRMS fosters a culture of excellence that I am committed to being an integral part of. My work ethic will serve students through every step of the college guidance process, and my passion will buoy them through the stress and self-doubt. I look forward to helping your students become the best version of themselves and to serving the CRMS community.”
