The first time I met him was when he interviewed me at Solomon Smith Barney. He managed a large team of opinionated techies but Mike brought out the best in them. He was not just a manager with a check list of tasks to complete but a leader who inspired us. He shared the spot light of success with the team and yet took the fall by himself if things went south. We both moved to Citi at the same time and went our separate paths. I would run into him every few years and he was as accessible and approachable as he was when we first met. Mike rose up the management ladder very quickly and was a MD when he left Citi. He is a true embodiment of a servant-leader and I was fortunate to have him as my manager and learnt a lot from him.", "One o Mike is a wealth of information when it comes to data. He is an excelent collaborator and innovator!!", and "I had the pleasure of working for Mike for over 7 years building Citi’s Data Technology strategy and solutions.

He also possesses great people skills allowing him to speak the language of business and technology building relationships that bring both functions together to solve business challenges."
