Having had the pleasure of working with & knowing Mike over the last 16 years or so, I know he is not only superb at his craft but genuinely likes & cares about his people, his clients and the business we are all in.
A fierce & I also know respected competitor amongst his peers, it is a tremendously well deserved recognition of Mike’s many skills and attributes. Congratulations Mike.
