STUDENT OR STAFF: Staff - Vice Principal, Science Teacher. In charge of School Teams.
HALL: Dakota - Staff Floor
PERSONALITY: A rather uptight man most of the time, especially when the running of the school is concerned - it's not easy building a college from nothing, you know! Mike lets himself loose when it comes to the ladies though, and the guys too, he is openly bisexual. Insulting him about it doesn't work though, he just shrugs it off without being bothered, although suggesting he shouldn't be vice-principal because of his sexual orientation gets his back up. He hates being tied down to one person for a long time, but doesn't go in for one-night-stands either, more of a flings kinda guy. His dark, handsome good looks and flirtatious nature means he has no problem picking up 'conquests'. People who reject him at first just make him try harder, and he hasn't failed yet! With his horses he is gentle and calm, with his students he has the perfect balance of being firm enough to make them try their hardest, but not so much they can dislike him for it.
BACKGROUND: Mike grew up on the site of Park Equine College when it was just a small riding school. He had a pretty happy upbringing, surrounded by horses and not getting on too badly with his parents. A rebellion in his late teens landed him in the grips of low level recreational drugs and alcohol, but it didn't last long. Mike realized he was bisexual at 14, and has never chosen between guys or girls - he sees them as equal.
He left school with average exam results at 18, and spent the next 10 years traveling the world and riding in almost every large country in the world, and a fair few smaller ones. Returning to England two years ago, he was dismayed to discover his parents had come into a large amount of money and got into a upper class society, leaving the riding school behind. Mike cut all ties with his parents at this point, spending the next year in London doing little other than any job he could pick up and having a large number of flings. Just under a year ago Mike received a phone call from an old friend, who wanted to let him know that the site of the riding school was up for sale, albeit not in a very good state. His parents death left him a millionaire and he invested every penny of it in the school. You can see the results...
