Biography

As a fee-only financial planner and the founder of WiseWay Advisors, Michael guides families to reach their financial destination by helping them build weatlh the WiseWay. He loves taking new adventures, which could be either an hour away or an ocean away, with his wife Shea.

With over 20 years experience as a pastor, most recently as an executive pastor, Michael has taught thousands of people in financial workshops.
