I help clients solve tough problems. I understand how governments work, and still smile on a regular basis. Clients find my approach creative and thoughtful, with a bias towards action. My colleagues and I enjoy working with a variety of teams and try to be a reliable partner. What separates our team from others is our ability to execute through to completion.

In the spring of 2015, Mike raised $63,000 in 70 days for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Man of the Year campaign. As a part of this effort to raise awareness and money for LLS, Mike was "pushed" out of an airplane at 11,300 feet by a 1st grader who was fighting leukemia. Yes, he is scared of heights.
