About Michael

Hi there! I'm Michael, and I bring my love for technology and wellness together at Ember Rise. After spending over a decade in software development and digital product design, I've found my sweet spot: creating tools that actually help people feel better in their everyday lives.

My own journey with mindfulness and holistic health practices changed everything for me. What started as personal exploration quickly became a passion for building digital spaces where wellness feels accessible, not overwhelming. I believe technology should meet you exactly where you are especially during those moments when you need clarity, support, or just a little extra light.

Here at Ember Rise, I get to pour my heart into developing our digital platform and creating tools that help our community track their progress, stay accountable, and deepen their wellness practices. I'm all about keeping things simple, accessible, and grounded in what actually works.

When I'm not coding or designing something new, you'll probably find me outside soaking up nature, enjoying a really good cup of coffee, or geeking out about systems that make life flow a little easier. I'm so glad you're here!
