As an established entrepreneur, Mike has developed and built several companies. After 15 years, he decided to move to a new industry – financial services. Mike, with his wife Cassandra as his partner, joined the broker-dealer Global View Capital Advisors in Bloomington, Minnesota, where they expanded their advisor base and grew their total assets under management. It was at GVCA that he became acquainted with Flexible Plan and the concept of "Strategic Diversification."

Mike understands that advisors need tools to defend against all markets – bull and bear. With his experience as an investment advisor, Mike can relate to the challenges that advisors face in meeting client expectations.

Mike currently resides in Lakeville, Minnesota, with his wonderful wife and their beautiful daughter Gianna. Most of their time together is spent enjoying the outdoors or inside a hockey rink. Mike is also actively involved in his local community and church and gives his time and talents to non-profits that are near and dear to his heart.
