“Mike is a rare blend: a nice guy who’s got the skills and smarts. He clearly has a deep knowledge and love for the digital space and Vail’s market thru and thru. During a very challenging and complex project he helped develop the vision, steered the ship, kept his cool when it went off course, knew when to push or not, and orchestrated many challenging stakeholders thru completion. I was impressed by his handling of situations and better yet I enjoyed working with him as a person”
Matt Walsh CEO Green Stone, former CP+B
