About Mike: Mike grew up in Mansfield, Massachusetts where he graduated from high school. From there, he moved around the Southeast, between Florida, Georgia, and Alabama, eventually graduating from the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
He got his first TV news job at WVTM-13 in Birmingham, Alabama. During that time, he worked as a photographer and was promoted to an on-air journalist. In 2012, he moved to Augusta, Georgia to become a full-time anchor and reporter for WJBF News Channel 6. He spent 5 years there winning various journalism awards and reporting on crime, politics, and the community.
Mike got a big break in 2017 when he moved to Tyler, Texas to become the main anchor for FOX 51 News. He worked there for 2 years before deciding to leave the business and move back to the Peach State to be closer with friends and family.
In his free time, Mike spends a lot of time with his family and his 2 dogs, Cody and Harley. He’s a film buff, so watching movies in the theater is a must. He also enjoys mountain biking, cooking, and dining out.
