Mike represents individuals that have been exposed to various chemicals and substances, such as benzene, chromium, radiation asbestos. He is a prior chairman of the Products Liability section of the North Carolina Advocates of Justice. A long time supporter of the World Wildlife Fund and various other environmental organizations, Mike is a fly fisherman who first visited Turneffe four years ago. He was instantly "hooked" when the first bonefish took his fly and went streaking across the flats. Sadly, that battle was not resolved in his favor that day but it day, but it was enough for Mike to develop a deep appreciation and respect for the special place that is Turneffe. As a result, he is a strong advocate for the preservation of Turneffe Atoll.
