Help Michael vie for a medal in the cloud computing category at the WorldSkills International Competition in Kazan, Russia in 2019.

Auckland

As a young adventurous person growing up in New Zealand, I have always aspired to become a visionary problem solver and am honoured to have been selected to represent New Zealand on the world stage in Kazan 2019.

I think getting involved in skills-based competitions are a great way to build team-work, spirit, self-confidence, proficiency and intelligence. This opportunity has already opened doors in my life and others alike.

Currently, I am finishing my Bachelors Degree in Information Technology and am ready to display my skills to the world.

Please help me get to Kazan so we can show the world New Zealand has what it takes to win!
