Originally from Seattle, WA, Michael now resides in Birmingham, AL, where he’s hopefully on the brink of engagement! At BBP, Michael plays a vital role on the Sensors team, providing quotes and sales support for the Account Managers in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama.

Here’s a fun fact about Michael: he’s musically talented and plays multiple instruments, including guitar, drums, and piano. His favorite quote, “Life is a series of commas, not periods,” by Matthew McConaughey, reflects his outlook on life’s continuous journey.
Michael’s personal mantra, “If you quit once, it becomes a habit. Don’t quit!” drives his persistence and determination. Looking back, he wishes he had left his hometown sooner, as doing so helped him blaze his own path and realize his independence.
For his dream dinner party, Michael would invite Michael Jordan, Matthew McConaughey, Steph Curry, and Noah Kahan—quite a diverse and fascinating group!
If Michael’s life had a theme song, it would be “Love It If We Made It” by The 1975. His eclectic taste in music spans Pop, Country, and Indie, but he genuinely loves most genres and is always open to new recommendations.
For prospective BBP employees, Michael offers this advice: “Just be open to learning what your role entails, get your product knowledge up, and be looking for ways to increase your value to your BBP team as a whole. Since we are always growing, new positions or titles will come when jobs are created internally!”
