I’ve had the pleasure of working with Mike for eight years and have come to know him extremely well on both a professional and personal basis. Mike is an energetic and savvy entrepreneur, launching a new market research service focused on Residential Connectivity and quickly taking it to over $1 million in sales. Mike is also an extremely effective manager and I’ve seen firsthand how deftly he has managed diverse teams of analysts with a wide range of personalities and skill sets. In addition, Mike has established himself as a thought leader in the multimedia and digital home market research areas, being asked to consult with such companies as Cisco and Microsoft as they formulated their strategies in these areas. On a personal note, Mike is a great guy with an easy-going personality and hilarious sense of humor; definitely someone to enjoy a beer (or two) with.

I had the priviledge to work with Mike as a team member and I have been truly impressed with his managerial skills and the in depth knowledge Mike has about the digital home markets. It was a great experience for me to work with Mike not only in terms of learning new aspects of market research but also getting to know more about other technologies that Mike has expertise in such as digital home networking, broadband video. Given a chance, I would love to work with him again !
