Bio
Jeff Payne
Mike is a talented editor who excels at not only providing soup and nuts coverage of local sports but the extras that distinguish a sports section with its readers such as insight and analysis as well as multi-media. It was always reassuring to me as his direct supervisor at The County Press to know that when a task was assigned it would not only be completed but would usually exceed expectations.
