Bio
Kelly Baumann
I had the pleasure of having Mike in a number of my classes and worked on a number of group projects with him at Grand Valley State. It was readily apparent that Mike was a natural born leader, was a very dedicated student, and had a high emotional intelligence. I was honored to be able to work with Mike and to get to know him as a friend. He stood out as one of the best MBA students at Grand Valley State and I think Mike would be an invaluable asset to any company or organization that is fortunate to be associated with him.
