Mike is not only one of the most naturally talented engineers I know but his enviable ability to handle high stress situations and his kind heart have always made me feel lucky to be his colleague. Mike is someone you can give any task to; he has a frustratingly good ability to make just about anything work. Having an issue overcoming a complicated problem? Ask Mike about it. He always has good questions and ideas that will hone in on a solution even if the topic is unfamiliar to him. Mike is very smart but it is his courage and willingness to explore every possible solution that makes him an even more awesome asset to his teammates. He is the best problem solver and troubleshooter I know. Also Mike's ability to handle extremely stressful situations has always made me admire him. He doesn't get caught in the heat of the moment; he instead gets to work and figures out how to make a bad situation better. It's not only logical and methodical but gives a sense of comfort to his teammates when he's able to calmly address a high-stress situation. It is a remarkable skill he's had since the day I met him. Lastly, Mike is a kind soul in every sense of the phrase. Mike will give **anything** to the people he cares for. I've seen Mike make countless sacrifices for people in his life, both personally and professionally. He cares deeply and doesn't ask for anything in return. He is a model person when it comes to interpersonal relationships. I am very fortunate to call Mike a friend." and "I've been nothing but impressed with the level of quality Mike delivers with each commit. He graciously stepped in to help me out on an open source project of mine (Twython, a programming library to interface with Twitter), and has been incredible in publicly engaging with users of the library regarding their issues and needed use cases. Mike's also orchestrated quicker releases of the project in order to expedite bug fixes for users, and has done great work in terms of reviewing and applying patches from other contributing users. His ability to manage and interface with users has been more help than I can possibly describe in a recommendation, and my only regret is that I've not been able to work with him more."
