After graduating from the University of Witwatersrand with a Bachelor of Education, majoring in English, Mike quickly went to work, rising through the ranks within a prestigious school in Johannesburg, becoming the Head of Academics for Grade 9 within four years. The desire for new challenges and broadening his horizons has lead him to Raffles American School. Mike is passionate about developing the skills and art of theatre within young people, which he developed himself while acting on stage.
