Background

Bridges, then bytes, then operators

Michael started in structural engineering, then computer engineering, then a 23-person organization inside a $700M Navy radio program at General Dynamics Mission Systems, plus a $900K DoD follow-on. IBM Watson put that work in front of Fortune 100 industrial, telecom, aerospace, and health buyers. Oracle put it into Primavera Cloud on live construction programs.

He now owns the P&L on storage and commercial real estate, including occupancy, rent roll, and remote operations.
