Michael has always been involved in building things from scratch - be they robots, services or organisations.

Later, as chief executive officer of Citizen's Advice Direct, he relished the opportunity to create not just a single service but an entire organisation.
Michael, who holds a degree in Electronic Engineering and an MBA, has many outside interests but mostly enjoys spending time with his wife and daughters.
