Background:
Michael graduated from Quinnipiac University in 2003 with a BS in Accounting and later got his MBA from Concordia University in 2018. Having worked in CPA firms, financial services, manufacturing, semiconductor, international trade, and e-commerce, his passion for helping others solve their problems pushed him to start MPC Consulting Services Inc. While having always worked full-time in professional offices after college, he attributes his ability to see and understand issues in real-time to the many years and countless hours spent in the food service industry and weekend construction jobs during his teenage years.
He has had the pleasure of working with diverse teams across the globe in various capacities and industries, allowing him
to quickly understand where problems start. With this knowledge, he can deliver high-quality solutions and advice to his ​clients.
While not working, Michael enjoys time with his wife and three kids in Cedar Park, TX. He can also be found running through the neighborhoods, at the gym, playing football with his kids, mountain biking, working on projects around the house, or some other type of outdoor activity with friends and neighbors. Even while enjoying these activities, his brain is constantly running and looking for new ways to solve problems and improve processes for his clients.
