Born and raised in the Bay Area, Mike kicked off his career working at big name tech companies. But while volunteering as a snowboard guide with Burton Chill and Discovery Blind Sports in his free time, Mike saw the incredible impact those programs had on people and stepped away from the tech world to focus on community efforts. For the next ten years, Mike filled the full spectrum of executive nonprofit roles. Mike has helped lead the Adaptive Sports Center in Crested Butte, Paradox Sports and most recently the Ouray Ice Park. Mike’s enthusiasm, creativity and responsiveness has contributed to his overwhelming success in making sure EVERYONE can experience the outdoors.
