Michael’s journey in the entertainment industry began in 2017 as a standup comedian. In March 2021, he took a leap into acting at Peak Acting in Denver, Colorado. It was there that he truly immersed himself in the craft and discovered a new passion for filmmaking.
In June 2021, Michael took a content creation class at Peak Acting, where he learned the basics of cinematography.

That same year, he delved into screenwriting, guided by influential books such as "Save the Cat" by Blake Snyder and "The Hero's Journey" by Joseph Campbell.
Michael’s dedication and hard work led to the creation of his first short film, "Repurposed," in 2022. The film was well-received and accepted into multiple film festivals.

The following year, in 2024, it earned significant recognition, including a nomination for "Best Screenplay" at the International Christian Film and Music Festival.
Building on this success, Michael wrote, directed, and filmed his second short film, "Don’t Hang Up on Me," in 2023. He is currently submitting this film to various festivals and is excited to share his latest work with a broader audience.
In the span of three years, Michael has written over 30 short films and a feature film called "Without a Prayer." He is currently working on another feature film titled "Whispering Shadows." To support his filmmaking endeavors, Michael started his own production company, MReyes Productions LLC.
