Early in his career, Mike led soldiers in Germany and Afghanistan as a captain in the U.S. Army. Mike’s entire life has been dedicated to helping others through service.  The events of September 11th had profound impacts on Mike’s family and community.  These events inspired Mike to serve his country.  Through his military service, Mike learned what it takes to build highly effective teams and how to WIN in austere situations with limited resources and time.  Derived from the military, Mike’s servant leadership approach has been the bedrock of how he has empowered and supported teams to reach their full potential. Mike earned a B.S. in Civil Engineering from West Point in 2008.
