Finance Commentator & Journalist

With a wit honed by conducting thousands of interviews, Michael shines as an MC and panel facilitator, guiding discussion and audience involvement. 

Michael can be seen on Channel Seven's Sunrise and news programs, the ABC’s The Drum and is Contributing Editor for the Sydney Morning Herald and the Age's BusinessDay.com.au sites. He is an acclaimed conference speaker, MC and facilitator, bringing rare humour and plain language to the dismal science.

He joined the Australian Financial Review in Sydney and then pioneered specialist finance journalism in commercial broadcasting - first with the Macquarie Radio network, then with Channel 9, Sky News and 7.  

Michael has four sons, maintains a love of Rugby Union, a dislike of gardening and what he calls "an outlook of optimistic scepticism".
