Colleagues describe him as "Michael is one of those rare colleagues who not only executes on inspired, thoughtful and all-around smart work...but teaches his peers something (often many things) along the way. During my time at Chapter, I was fortunate to partner with Michael on more than one occasion. He was the ideal collaborator - always raising the bar, and building on the team's thinking to exceed that bar. He has a keen understanding of people and a natural curiosity to unlock the game-changing insight about the audience and/or business challenge. I genuinely hope to find myself working with Michael again in my career.", "Michael is a force of nature. When Michael is working on a project for our business, I know I’m guaranteed to have a fresh perspective, smart critical thinking and be swept up by his energy and enthusiasm. Even in remote scenarios, his intelligence and charisma come through quickly and he is able to quickly build rapport with varied stakeholders across the business from software engineer to our CEO. In particular, Michael has been instrumental in helping Silent Circle create our customer experience map and translating it into actionable deliverables ranging from our product’s user experience to our customer service approach which has been foundational work for our business. I look forward to every opportunity to collaborate with Michael in the future.", and "Michael exemplifies every quality you want in a leader: he's brave, he's empowering, and he's a dynamic team player. We worked together on the Sonic and Quiksilver accounts at GS&P, and Michael was critical in leading each of these teams towards our ambitious goals. Beyond his strategic chops, Michael is someone I look to as a mentor. He made my work better and he made the days more fun. I'd eagerly jump at the chance to work with him again."
