Hi. I’m Mike.
I am passionate about professional and personal vision. From founding Fixer.com, an on-demand handyperson B-corp that trains its employees from scratch to founding GrubHub back in the day, I’ve learned a lot about what matters – like ethical business practices to making a difference in the world.
After I left GrubHub post-IPO, I punted it all to ride my bike across the United States. My book Hangry comes out in 2022 and I’d love for you to pick up your own copy to get the full story.
