Mike always conducted him self in a very professional manner and was highly regarded in his management position of the web production team. Mike is also very personable and easy to get along with. This quality is crucial to his continuing success, as many people consider him the approachable and very capable “go-to-guy” of SOE’s Web team.

Working under Mike as a Sr. Artist has been great. Since the start of my career at Sony Online, he has provided creative feedback on all of my designs and helped me pay close attention to detail in my work. He encourages and drives enthusiasm. He's quick to respond, always available when I need help or have a question, creative, easygoing and also very understanding. During the tough times, when stress is all that I had during a project, Mike knew how to brighten the day, and provide answers to tough questions.
