Mike was born and raised in the small town of Lonsdale, Minnesota. He graduated from St. Cloud State University, (MN) in 1993, with a BS in Mass Commmunication, Minors in Political Science and Speech.

In his spare time, Mike enjoys sports (Go VIKINGS!!!) going to the beach, and traveling.

Hopefully, you can join Mike every morning from 5:30am-8am for THE News at Daybreak and on THE News at Noon.
