Mike has lived in Seattle for the last seven years, where he rapidly built a career in sales. Originally from Long Beach Island, New Jersey, he of course loves any activity involving the ocean. He loves to surf and swam competitively in high school and college. Having a great passion for helping people, he was an ocean lifeguard for a decade and a volunteer firefighter, where he enjoyed being a first responder. Since moving to Washington, he has found new interests for PNW activities, including becoming a strong steelhead and salmon fisherman and an avid hockey fan (go Kraken!) Mike lives with his fiance’ and is excited to start the next exciting chapter in his life.
