Interests

Mike is a creative virtuoso in graphic and web design, a maestro in music production, and a green-thumbed gardening enthusiast. He is also a long-time volunteer of an advocacy group providing mentorship and support to people transitioning back into daily life after a spinal cord injury. Through my volunteer work, I learned that no matter how good my advice was for someone I was trying to mentor, If we didn’t have a good relationship, I wasn’t effective in helping them achieve their goals. As a result, I developed a strong emphasis on the importance of establishing and maintaining my client’s trust.
