Bio
Erik Olson
I worked with Michael directly at Heaven’s Best Carpet Cleaning in 2016 while I was general manager. He always had an incredible attitude and was eager to serve the customers to his best abilities. Out of others on the team Michael stood out as he consistently achieved his goals with a smile. The customers enjoyed interacting with him and he added value to the company’s reputation. Now that I am an owner of a business I wish I had more people on my team like Michael. I have even asked him a few times to come and work for me. I wish him the greatest success and know he has all the talent and drive to achieve whatever he desires.
