Recruited in 1985 by Proctor & Gamble, Mike attributes much of his early success in the corporate world to P&G’s world-renowned employee training and development program.

Fifteen years of Mike’s corporate experience was with Johnson & Johnson. Well known for its succession planning and internal promotion, Mike was nominated early on for the Leadership Development Program and accordingly benefited from J&J's integrated curriculum that focuses on business management, accounting and finance. As an identified leader he took part in action-learning teams with the executive committee and executive mentoring program.
In 2007 Mike was recruited by senior executives at Zimmer Inc., and accepted a position with this four-billion dollar leader in orthopedic device. After successfully orchestrating several major M&A strategies, including the acquisition of Abbott Spine, Mike was promoted to VP of US Sales and proceeded to manage a two-billion dollar US market. Working closely with Zimmer’s CEO, Mike had direct management responsibility for six VP’s and four Area Directors and an indirect responsibility for a national sales force of 2,200 regional managers and their sales representatives.
A graduate of Gettysburg College with a BA in English and Business, Mike is married to his wife of 23 years and the proud father of four daughters. He is active in the local community, recently completing a board term as Treasurer of the Saratoga Springs Figure Skating Club.
