About Mike
I have spent the last 15+ years working in tech in Product and Design in New York. Prior to that, I worked in Marketing, Sales, and R&D in Toronto. I have been a consultant, working across industries for years. I have played executive roles and scaled products from 0 to 1 and beyond. I have a special affinity for spaces without obvious answers and clear direction. My career reflects my comfort with ambiguity and the ability to come out the other end with clear direction and priorities. I am a collaborator at heart. I love working with people and sharing problems and experiences to reach an outcome. I have spent the better part of my career working with executives, coaching change, and asking the hard questions. I create safe spaces and the right conditions to meet hard truths head-on. I look forward to working with anyone spinning in their tracks, mired in imposter syndrome, or just plain ready for change.

Let's get out of that rut, and the endless cycle of complaining. I'm a great listener, but I'm action oriented. I tailor our conversations to you and your goals. This is coaching, not a course, so we're here to deal with real life and real situations as they occur. We're here to gameplan, execute, and reflect. We can do some "therapizing" (read: ranting and raving), but my ultimate goal is to get you to see the changes you want, be that in your day-to-day or in your career as a whole. This coaching is for anyone at any stage in their career. I spent the majority of my career in tech, but I believe a lot of the lessons I've learned are universal.

I’ve known Mike for nearly a decade, and I can say without hesitation that he’s one of the most thoughtful, strategic, and genuinely inspiring people I’ve had in my corner.
Over the years, he’s helped me navigate multiple career inflection points—from making meaningful pivots to advocating for myself and successfully asking for a raise. He has a rare ability to cut through the noise, ask the right questions, and help you see both the big picture and the practical next steps. Beyond that, he’s been instrumental in helping me think through how to position and market myself and my business in a way that actually resonates and brings in the right clients.
What sets Mike apart is not just his knowledge (which is deep and wide-ranging), but how invested he is in your growth. He listens carefully, challenges you when needed, and helps you move forward with clarity and confidence.
If you’re considering working with a career coach, I can’t recommend Mike highly enough. He doesn’t just give advice—he helps you build a strategy and step into it.I have had the privilege of knowing Mike for eight years and collaborating closely with him for five of those years across two companies, profoundly shaping my professional trajectory.
I first met Mike at a consulting firm where he served as a mentor to me, sharpening my product and design thinking and introducing me to a level of strategic rigor I had not developed. His ability to engage executives at every level and maintain stakeholder alignment was exceptional — a skill I saw as one of his defining professional strengths.
His impact was significant that when the opportunity arose, I actively sought him out to join me at another organization as my direct manager. There, we built a product vision and strategy together, and I witnessed firsthand how Mike navigates complexity with calm and conviction. In moments of uncertainty, he had a rare ability to ground the team — not by minimizing challenges, but by instilling confidence that we had the capability to work through them together.
What distinguishes Mike as a leader and coach is his intuition for knowing when to guide and when to step back. He understood precisely when to offer direction and when to let me take ownership and grow through experience. That balance was invaluable to my development and played a central role in my evolution into a senior leadership role.
I have no hesitation in saying that Mike has been one of the most influential figures in my career. His mentorship, strategic insight, and genuine investment in the growth of those around him make him an outstanding coach — and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking to elevate their leadership and unlock their professional potential.Mike’s coaching was invaluable while I was transitioning careers. He wields his insight and experience deftly and is an amazing communicator. What a resource—can’t recommend highly enough!
