Bio
LinkedIn User
I’ve always believed success of a company begins and ends with its people. For this reason, when I build teams in the workplace I look for three key characteristics: Passion, business acumen, and genuineness. As I’ve worked with Michael over the years as both co-worker and industry colleague, I can attest Michael exudes all three of these characteristics plus many more (professionalism, leadership, vision, etc.). Very fortunate are those companies who have the opportunity to build teams with and around Michael.

Michael's champion smile & professional aptitude are definitely a tribute to his success. With charismatic charm Michael is able to bring outstanding sales to the company, lead the associates in the field. Michael is always quick to obtain accurate accounting information from his team members. To have Michael as a member of our company is a treasure.
