With a Cert IV Diploma in Small Business Management, Mike's extensive background includes a remarkable 10-year tenure as General Manager for Telstra Corporation and instrumental contributions to building telco giants like Vodafone and 3 Mobile.

In 2022, Mike decided to shift gears, bidding farewell to full-time corporate life in pursuit of a better work/life balance and a role aligned with his interests. His arrival at Base Zero has injected a dynamic energy into our team, fuelled by his enthusiasm and friendly nature. Mike's positive 'can do' attitude creates a buzz at events, inspiring children to reach heights they never thought possible.

Beyond his professional prowess, Mike wears the hat of a dedicated family man.

Mike is a regular participant in running events and Tough Mudder-style obstacle courses.
Outside of the fast-paced world, Mike finds solace in dropping a line at his favourite fishing spots in Moreton Bay.

We are thrilled to welcome Mike to the Base Zero family, where his wealth of experience, passion for adventure, and positive spirit align seamlessly with our team culture. Together, we look forward to scaling new heights and achieving exciting milestones.
