A vote for Irish isn’t just good luck,
It’s the smart move!
Michael is a native Arizonan, born in 1985 and raised right here in Moon Valley, in addition to being all-Arizona educated! After attending Lookout Mountain Elementary and Mountain Sky Junior High, Michael then ventured downtown to Brophy College Prep for HS, graduating with honors in 2003.
With the exception of his college years down at the University of Arizona ('07), Michael is a life-long Moon Valley resident. After college, Michael came home to Moon Valley where he attended law school at the Phoenix School of Law, graduating in May 2011 and passing the July 2011 bar exam. Michael also earned a computer science certification from Harvard University in 2022. Michael is the only licensed attorney running for this judicial position!
Practicing law since 2011 within the real estate and business realm, Michael has represented clients in justice court on a variety of matters, including evictions, breach of contract actions, and various other landlord/tenant lease disputes. Michael is looking for a new challenge and after gaining 13+ years as a practicing attorney, has decided to act upon his longtime desire to sit behind the bench and become a judge, thus this campaign!
