With over three decades in the business, Mike has found that being part of the team dedicated to providing excellent customer service is what inspires him the most, along with coaching people to be successful in their careers. There are three key factors Mike looks for when assembling a team: Integrity, Reputation, and a Successful track record. Always focused on the future, Mike is optimistic about what could be, which he says is a strength of his. Set a goal for Mike and he will reach it. . One of his biggest accomplishments was winning the Honolulu Light Rail project in Hawaii. After nine long months, Mike and his team were awarded the project.

Client satisfaction is paramount to Mike, “Give customers what they don’t know they want, intentionally build lasting relationships, solve problems you did not create and look for opportunities to provide added value.” Looking back at his career Mike has learned that great technical skills only take you so far, emotional intelligence takes you much farther. Combine the two and sky’s the limit.
