About Mike

I’m a lifelong optimist, business development and consulting professional who focuses on providing sophisticated solutions for people and organizations who are committed to thinking deeply about the future. I’m an influencer and a motivator- someone who loves to sell by turning a great concept into an experience that people can see, touch and feel.

I believe that even the most far-reaching goals can be realized with imagination, vision and a commitment to change. My view is that, when people are learning, they are growing, so I work every day to make excellence a part of those lives that I come in contact with. For me, every day is an opportunity to make my world a better, more engaging place to live in.

Through my nearly 27 years of professional sales and consulting experience, I have been driven by success but have never lost sight of the value of developing engaging, personal relationships. I have seen the best results whenever I have taken the time to know and understand the challenges and objectives of the people that I come in contact with.

I attended University of California Berkeley’s Business and Management Program and received an IT Diploma at Munich University of Applied Sciences. Since the beginning of my career, working for companies like Nokia and Oracle as a sales manager, I have always been a big picture thinker.

I have become an expert in the sales of software and technology services, and I have used my skills as a creative and executive coach to provide stronger and more lasting results to my clients. Whether as a Country Sales Director at MySQL or a Vice President Sales at Xerox, I have always been a consultative thinker.

I'm looking forward to get directly in contact with you!
