Mike has been an active member of the Raleigh Astronomy Club (RAC) since 2006, looking up towards the night sky since 2003 but his interest in space was sparked when he was just a child watching the first Space Shuttle launch. With an eye towards educating others in the field of astronomy and observing, in 2014 Mike achieved the Master of Astronomy Outreach Award by the Astronomical League for volunteering over 250 hours of public outreach. In 2018, he was accepted into the NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassadors corp. in order to further expand his outreach and education opportunities. Mike has presented on a broad range of topics covering amateur astronomy and space exploration. He has also supported many educational events and public observing sessions through museums, clubs and schools as well as very large events such as NC Museum of Natural Science’s Astronomy Days, the North Carolina State-Wide Star Party and The Morehead Planetarium & Science Center’s Sky Watching sessions. Mike's current astronomical pursuits are focused around EAA (electronically assisted astronomy) and completing various Astronomical League observing programs.
