Complete Endorsement Statement

As I’ve developed my professional career, I’ve learned something - great bosses are rare. Mike Dias is a great boss, a passionate leader, and a dear friend.

What sets Mike apart from others in his field is not just his drive to do great things, but to enable those in his circle to do great things as well. The phrase “a rising tide lifts all boats” comes to mind - every project we did was not just to uplift our own business and skills, but to bring tremendous value to our clients and collaborators.

Mike’s skills with networking and sales led us to do incredible work with some of the biggest heavy-hitters in entertainment. And the whole time, I felt supported and trusted to do my best. The tools and skills I learned through working with Mike, as well as that feeling of being supported, have been invaluable for all aspects of my work.

In fact, I can draw a direct line between working with Mike and building out my independent career as an online creator and cultural analyst. And as that career was starting to blossom, Mike was there to offer guidance and support.

This recommendation was provided by the creator for Mic the Snare following five years of professional development and collaborative work.
