Mike is one of the sharpest enterprise sales people I have ever met. He knows shipping, he knows e-commerce and he lives and breathes technology. Mike works tirelessly with customers to develop long term relationships for solutions that better their shipping and supply chain operations. We worked well together and I'd relish the day that we get to work together again. Highly recommended for enterprise sales and solution selling.

Mike is a results oriented leader who shares a clear a vision for success with his team. I had the pleasure working with Mike as a sales rep. He sets clear expectations and holds those who work for him accountable. At the same time he is someone that is a joy to work for. He cares about his people and helps them to develop their skills and careers. Mike gets the best out of those that work with him.
