Bio

Mike, was the former CEO of Express-1 Expedited Solutions. Mike co-founded Express-1, inc. in 1989. He sold the company to Segmentz inc. in 2004 and became the President of the corporation. In 2005 he was named CEO and grew the now public company from under $40,000,000 in revenue to nearly $158,000,000 of revenue in 2010. The rapid growth was achieved through solid organic growth and key acquisitions.
