Michael Kates is a Managing Editor and Partnerships at Gambling.com Group. He possess expertise in storytelling, editorial, publishing, web content, digital media and 32 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Mike Kates was one of the most creative and skilled editors on our staff. One of Mike's best attributes is his drive to be excellent... he comes in every day with the goal of doing something exceptional. He is a resourceful problem-solver and a force multiplier who drives everyone around him to excel." and "I worked with Mike Kates for nearly 20 years at the Chicago Tribune, and when I say "worked with,'' I mean "worked with.'' He always was an editor who understood a writer's situation, even if the writer had diva tendencies. He was straight and honest about topics, space and deadlines, and worked hard to put out the best section that night. Every night. If given the chance to work with Mike again, I know I'd be working for man who not only would fight to make the current website and the next day's section the best possible, but I'd also know as a writer that Mike would put me in the best spot to contribute to that goal."
