“My dream—which was dormant for four years and collecting dust—finally saw the light of day, thanks to Mike. After discussing a long-held idea with him, Mike swiftly provided insights that helped realize the launch of my business. He consistently checked in to ensure I stayed accountable for taking the leap to create my website. Mike is consistently professional, knowledgeable, and goes the extra mile to meet your needs. Beyond exceeding my expectations with a website built-from-scratch, Mike is there every step of the way to offer professional advice, education on an idea, or assistance in bringing it to life. His services extend beyond websites; he has also crafted shirts, business cards, stickers, tablecloths, and branded graphic that I share across social media. Saying that he is truly a total package is an understatement!”

—Mykal Velozo, Founder

"Mike and I had the privilege of working together on building the foundational growth for inclusivity and belonging at MRC. He was deeply embedded in the organization and keenly understood the needs of the audience and the external forces that made an impact on the moment. From website & logo design, to communication strategies, to fostering workplace cultures, Mike will always meet you where you are at and help guide your vision forward. I am proud to call him a colleague and a friend."

“Mike is interested in and capable of doing just about anything in the communications field—and he does it all quickly while building strong relationships and turning out superior quality. I refer to Mike as the example of how to be well-rounded and valuable to an organization when I advise my mentees and others exploring opportunities in our profession.”

—Jackie Bartoletti, Founder

“We are incredibly fortunate to have Mike's strategic hand in all facets of our new business venture. The quality and attention to detail he brings to our marketing and visual communications gives us a brand that we are superbly proud of. We truly couldn’t have done this without him.”

—David Garonzik, Founder & CEO

“Mike has all of the skills you need – project management, communication, leadership, design, writing, and more—but what makes Mike special and memorable to work with is his ability to inspire his team, make them feel engaged and empowered, and to drive them to do better work through a positive culture. In a previous role, I worked with Mike as a vendor and he was our customer for an implementation I was running. Mike pushed our team to deliver to a higher design standard and quality than the organization ever had previously and we all wanted to do it because we all believed in Mike. If you’ve been on the vendor side of this before, you know how rare a positive experience like that is. It was our best quality implementation, done on time, on budget, with a great focus on design detail—and everyone felt great about it. Because of that experience, I would work with Mike anywhere.”

—Marko Savic, Product and GTM Leader

“Mike is one of the most talented individuals I’ve ever had the opportunity to work with. I truly relied on him as my partner across internal communications, brand communications employee engagement and experiences. He’s a multi-hyphenate who goes above and beyond with every project - no matter how big, or small. As I built my team at MRC from the ground up, he was one of my first hires. I was immediately struck by his wide array of talents across multiple disciplines and functions. He quickly and competently built compelling internal communications strategies that were well received by our organization during a period of dynamic and unprecedented change. Mike was not only a partner to me, but to our CEOs, senior leadership team and stakeholders across the organization. He is respected and well-liked for being diplomatic and thoughtful. He has a very strong emotional intelligence, is adaptable and stays focused on delivering on goals. I would hire Mike again, and again, and again.”
