Surrounded by the hospitality industry his entire life and by learning the ropes as a “hands-on” operator, he has become a master of constructing and operating profitable hotels that outperform the competition.

Under Mike’s direction, many of the properties received excellent inspection scores and achieved high customer satisfaction ratings.
Mike is passionate about developing construction projects, which includes FF&E. Coupled with his creativity and ability to understand ever-changing floor plans, he has earned the trust of high-level hospitality brands.
Mike currently resides in Ridgeland, MS with his wife and two children.
