Experience & Education
Mike has been active in the construction industry since 1990, with expertise in site development and infrastructure, as well as river restoration, wetland mitigation and ecological restoration projects. He began his career in San Diego, working for a national company and executing quality control on high-profile federal projects such as Camp Pendleton and Miramar military bases. He next moved to Michigan to run the firm’s Kalamazoo office.
Mike joined V3 in 1997 to develop the company’s construction and contracting capabilities, resulting in the establishment of a separate contracting subsidiary to focus on site infrastructure projects.
