Early Days
His love of sports started at age 3 when he began ice skating in Northern Ontario, Canada. Mike excelled at multiple sports growing up including baseball, golf, and hockey, eventually going on to play Junior A hockey through college, before injuries forced him to change his focus. In 1999, while still playing Junior A hockey, he enrolled in PGM College and graduated in 2002.
As a junior golfer, Mike won numerous golf tournaments even though golf was not his main focus. After injuries forced him away from hockey during college, he turned his attention to professional golf and completed his playing ability test to become a member of the Canadian PGA. As a professional- Mike was on a team that opened 2 prominent golf clubs in Canada, where he specialized in golf operations and coaching.
With a strong desire to compete and having success as a young playing professional- Mike took his game to the Australasian Tour and various mini-tours across Europe and North America, racking up 5 professional victories and numerous Top 10 finishes. From there- he caddied on the PGA and LPGA Tours, where he met his now wife Charlotte Mayorkas who is a successful LPGA Player, UCLA Alumni, and also a coach at Haggin Oaks! After moving to the states full time- he started his own coaching company in 2008- coaching all levels of athletes from juniors to tour players.
