Career
She has presented various television shows including Xposé, a daily entertainment/celebrity gossip television show on TV3 in Ireland, Arthur"s Day, RTÉ Two television series Under Ether, the weekday breakfast show, Pure Morning on Phantom FM now TXFM, and Night Shift and Day Shift on Channel 6 for a number of years before the closure of the station on 31 December 2008. Michelle is a model with Morgan The Agency, having got her career break whilst working in Dublin, Ireland as an air stewardess for the airline Aer Lingus, where she had worked since 1997. She was among twelve well-known females who took part in the "Max Factor Salutes Great Moments in Fashion" show for which she was styled in vintage fashions and hair styles, photographed by fashion photographer Sarah Doyle and wore a figure-hugging black dress by Louise Kennedy for a portrait which was then sold off at a charity auction.
She presented Night Shift, the short lived alternative music show on Channel Six, seven nights per week and also on two weekend afternoons.
The decision not to renew the show left both her and Elton Mullally, the co-presenter of the show, feeling "completely bewildered, and absolutely gutted". An online campaign to reinstate her on the new 3e roster was launched immediately.
The programme is rumoured to be returning in 2014. She also had a presenting role during the Arthur"s Day events in Dublin in 2009.
She has presented (When) Under Ether for RTÉ Two on Tuesday nights.
She presented Haiti Aid on February 3, 2010 at Whelan"s and The Village in Dublin. Michelle played the part of “Liv” in Lenny Abrahamson’s critically acclaimed, award winning film What Richard Did and has just finished filming independent Irish film The Hit Producer where she played the lead role, Katelin Ballantine. As well as being nominated for an IFTA, Michelle has also been nominated for Ireland"s television Personality of the Year award.
