Mike began his career as a laborer, learning machine set up, operation, and maintenance before becoming a millwright.

Mike expanded his expertise into sales and purchasing 25 years ago. As a long-time production professional, he initially resisted the transition but eventually recognized how seamlessly these roles complemented one another. Today, he is grateful for the opportunity to share his knowledge of the secondary manufacturing industry and find custom solutions for his customers.
