I’m Michael Farris, a freelance writer and content creator with a passion for exploring the world of casinos. For over a decade, I’ve been writing in-depth articles, reviews, and guides about all aspects of the gambling industry—from online platforms to land-based casinos. I specialize in helping readers navigate the complex and often thrilling world of gaming by providing honest insights and practical advice.
I was born and raised in Toronto, Canada, a city that has been my home for most of my life. Growing up, I was always fascinated by the stories of chance, strategy, and risk that casinos represent. My first introduction to this world came during a trip to Las Vegas in my early twenties. The energy, the lights, and the way people chased their luck—it all hooked me. But more than just the thrill of the games, I became fascinated by the stories behind the scenes—the way casinos operate, how the odds are calculated, and how different games appeal to different types of players.
After returning from that trip, I started researching and writing about casinos as a hobby. It wasn’t long before I realized there was a real demand for well-written, thoughtful content in this niche. I began freelancing, offering my knowledge and perspectives to websites and blogs across the internet. My articles now cover a wide range of topics, from game strategies and casino bonuses to responsible gambling practices and the latest trends in the industry.
Canada has a rich gaming culture, with both land-based casinos and an increasing presence in the online gambling sector. I take pride in being part of this community, especially as the online casino scene continues to grow and evolve in my home country. Living here gives me unique access to some of the best legal gaming environments in the world, which I reflect in my writing.
In my personal life, when I’m not researching the latest casino developments, I enjoy the natural beauty that Canada has to offer. Whether I’m hiking through the forests of British Columbia or fishing in the pristine lakes of Ontario, I find balance in nature. These moments outdoors help me recharge and come back to my work with fresh insights and new perspectives.
At the heart of everything I do is a desire to help people make informed decisions. I believe that gambling should be fun, but it should also be approached with knowledge and caution. Through my writing, I strive to give readers the tools they need to enjoy casinos in a way that’s both responsible and rewarding.
It’s been an incredible journey so far, and I look forward to where the ever-evolving world of casinos will take me next.
