“Mike has done a wonderful job of showing us how government should be considered a partner, not an impediment. Every time our organization has needed support from the public sector, Mike has figured out the right path for us to be successful. I would absolutely recommend him to others. ”

— David Gilbert, CEO of Destination Cleveland and the Greater Cleveland Sports Commission

“Mike has been our partner for 15 years; not just our lobbyist, but truly a partner in our mission. His ability to look strategically and holistically at our needs, and the needs of our clients, to help our organization evolve and face new challenges has been invaluable.”

— Natalie Leek, CEO of Providence House

“Mike has played a pivotal role in positioning our organization as a key resource for Ohio lawmakers, and he has been a key resource for us. At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, when leaders were trying to figure out how to navigate this novel threat and keep our organizations, teams, and clients safe, Mike convened a network of peer support for his clients. He met with us as a group every afternoon and shared information about executive orders, how to get PPE, the PPP loan process, and anything else we needed. During a time when we were facing so much uncertainty, Mike created a community, and he was in it WITH us!”

— Sharon Harvey, President & CEO of the Cleveland Animal Protective League
