"I operate with the belief we are here to do good things for other people...and sometimes a well-intentioned company powered by motivated people is the best vehicle to have the biggest impact. My days are spending proving it." 

Mike lives in Mendota Heights, Minnesota with his lovely wife Sara and two beautiful kids, Olivia and Fritz.  In addition to being a loyal fan of the Minnesota Vikings he enjoys reading, playing chess, drinking whiskey, smoking cigars, making chili, swimming with the family, fighting for social justice, and laughing (mostly at himself).
