When Mike joined Nexus 5 Group, we were more than thrilled to welcome his expertise because, at the time, we really needed a leader in the field. Mike not only integrated seamlessly into our work culture but also enhanced it, helping newer individuals in the field navigate the ropes with ease. His practical advice and step-by-step guidance on the most efficient ways to install ductwork and equipment have been invaluable to our team's development.
Mike has been a good communicator as well. This helps the project management team and the subcontractors around him. This is essential to a successful project.
Outside of work, Mike is a devoted family man.
He has been happily married for 22 years, sharing his life with his wife, a daughter, a stepson, and six grandchildren. There are many things that keep him busy at home includes Harley rides, hunting arrowheads and playing in a band for over 20 years.
Jim Hays, a respected colleague, sums up Mike's influence at Nexus 5 Group perfectly. He said, "He is very helpful when working with newer individuals to the trade by giving them advice and showing them the most efficient way to install ductwork and equipment. His communication skills are excellent in terms of directing others and when ordering materials. The results of his efforts always produce a product that he and the company can be proud of."
Tom Cowan said of Mike, “When we added Mike to our team, things just seemed to go well. He added even more professionalism to our project sites. It felt like we had finally arrived in the Mechanical world. What I learned about Mike, as I got to spend more time around him, is that he is a great person. Fun to talk to, engages in our company activities and has a smile to go with it. We are grateful to have him on our team.”
Since his hire, we have been able to place several other great people around him. It is noticeable the difference he makes to those around him. Like any good culture, they take on the same traits and practices.
Thank you, Mike. We appreciate you!
