“Mike is great at product not only individually but also as a facilitator to get groups other product teams to create their very best ideas. Time and time again I saw him set up processes that lead to deep insights which translated to impactful products. Add to that an always positive and proactive attitude and you have someone like Mike who you would be lucky to have on your team.”

“Mike and I built many tools and platforms in the six months of our working together, many of which are still in use today. He showed an uncanny ability to act as the "voice of the customer" and his communication to our scrum team was always clear, concise, and respectful. Mike would be a great addition to any team. He has extensive experience in a variety of roles and can excel in the face of new challenges and opportunities.”

“Mike is gifted with the superpower of clear communication. He has a unique ability to take a complex problem, break it down into bite-size pieces, and deliver it to his teammates with clear direction. It's a skill I highly valued as a close collaborator.  Over the two years I worked with Mike, I saw him continually take on new responsibilities as a Product Manager. I was regularly inspired by his ability to pick up new concepts and implement them into everyday practice. He has a vision and drive that constantly stretches the abilities of not just himself, but all those he collaborates with.”
