Mike Diamond got off to a bit of a rough start in life - battling undiagnosed dyslexia, starting to use drugs and alcohol at age 12, and struggling to finish high school. A stroke of luck, however, earned him a green card in 1997, and he moved to the States, where he landed acting roles and built a career in entertainment, appearing on Miami Ink and NY Ink, and later directing, producing, and starring in Bondi Ink Tattoo Crew. Despite this initial stream of success, however, Mike found himself spiritually bankrupt and thoroughly miserable. In 2006, realising his life depended on it, Mike decided to get sober and, with his life completely turned around, has now helped hundreds of people on their own paths to recovery.
