He was the first Democrat in Jefferson County elected to the Senate in 25 years. He successful led the effort to flip the Colorado Senate blue in 2000 – the first time Democrats held a majority in 40 years.

Named Lawyer of the Year in Government Relations for a fourth time in 2022, few can rival Mike’s breadth of experience in law, public policy, and state government relations.   

Mike’s passion for public policy extends beyond his professional commitments.

He served 12 years on 2 different Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains boards.

He’s now in his second term after being re-elected to the West Metro Fire Board
