Mike began stand up comedy in Chicago, where within two years he was working regularly at the most prestigious clubs in the city, including The Laugh Factory. He has since returned home because his mother made him, and has been quickly rising in the Irish, and European scene, playing regularly in major clubs in Dublin and London, where he won the King Gong at the Comedy Store.

Mike brought his first solo show The Best Boy in Ireland to the Edinburgh fringe festival 2018, in what was a sold-out run, and performed that same show to sold-out rooms at the Perth Fringe Festival in 2019.

As well as co-hosting Mike & Vittorio’s Guide to Parenting with Vittorio Angelone, and Big Mike and The Chief with Rob Moriarty, Mike has appeared multiple times on smash hit podcast Have a Word, and released his first comedy special in October 2023.
