Michael Seegobin, a talented young chef from New Smyrna, is making waves on Fox’s hit culinary competition, MasterChef Junior. He’s the son of Marion County Fire Rescue Lieutenant Deen Seegobin, and his journey on the show has placed him in the top 7.
In the first four episodes of the season, Michael impressed both judges and audiences alike. His leadership skills were highlighted in the most recent episode when he was chosen as the team captain during a challenging task at the Magic Castle.
Despite the pressure, Michael’s team emerged victorious.
