"In addition to strong vision and leadership abilities, Mike possesses truly impressive collaboration skills, which enable him to drive alignment with partners, peers, and direct/indirect reports. One of his qualities that has most impressed me to-date has been his ability to bring together disparate parties with often opposing goals and interests."

He bootstrapped a new business inside Adobe for healthcare with a shoestring budget and a seed of an idea that resulted in multiple millions of dollars of new revenue. Mike is a self starter with deep industry experience. His ebullience and professionalism are deeply appreciated by all who work with him."
