He tries to help the community through his membership in Rotary. Another organization he has been working closely with since 2012, is the Magic Paintbrush Project, which is a not-for-profit that provides unique programs for individuals of all ages with developmental disabilities. Mike also enjoys all types of sports including golf, tennis, basketball and now spends a lot of time doing crossfit. He recently completed his first half marathon and a Spartan Race. If not participating in sports, Mike can be found watching sports. He enjoys going up to see his Syracuse Orangemen play basketball, but also supports local teams such as the Rumble Ponies and Senators. Besides sports, Mike likes to do a good amount of traveling. One of his current endeavors is to visit every Major League Baseball stadium.
