Mike is a long-time CBJ fan who has been around since Day 1 of the franchise. He grew up in Columbus, went to college at Ohio State, Class of '19, and now works as a Property Claims Adjuster. He brings the perspective of a long-time Jackets fan who somehow has not had the relentless optimism beaten out of him over the last 25 years.
