Mike has spent his career helping communities bring their visions to life.
He has a deep understanding of the challenges that cities and towns face and has assisted in virtually every aspect of community and economic development, including funding for aging infrastructure, community facilities, housing, and neighborhood revitalization. Mike has developed a well-earned reputation for helping communities identify which programs make sense, how to bring in the right partners, and turn available funding into long-term solutions.
Mike’s strength lies in building consensus and aggressively moving plans forward. He knows how to bring the right people to the table and create a shared sense of purpose. His approach has always been to listen first, then help communities build strategies that reflect their unique needs and goals.
What sets Mike apart is his ability to keep evolving while staying grounded in real-world experience. The tools and funding streams have changed since the 1970s, but the needs, in many respects, are similar and yet evolving. He has continued to adapt, making sure that Triad is always offering relevant, effective solutions that match the moment.
Thanks to Mike’s leadership, Triad has grown into a well-rounded firm that touches every aspect of community development. Having secured funding for projects of all sizes – from as much as $100 million for a Federal Empowerment Zone Program to as small as a few thousand dollars for the purchase of equipment – no project is too big or too small for Triad.
Triad’s team of in-house and on-call professionals offer a diverse range of technical and practical experience and the resources necessary to assist clients.
While the company’s portfolio of services continues to build on its core competencies of grant writing, project implementation, housing, community and economic development, and strategic planning solutions, Triad remains committed to providing the same personal service and attention to detail that has been our hallmark since 1978.
