I came to Crutchfield fresh out of college in 2009 with a major in Business Administration. I've always been the person that has to have the "latest and greatest" gear, so it simply made sense for me to begin my career here.
Music is something that means a lot to me. I have a very eclectic taste, and tend not to favor any specific genres, if I like it, I listen to it. Anything from Classic Rock and Country to Instrumental and Jazz, I can enjoy it all. I personally have Samsung TV's throughout my home with an Onkyo receiver in the living area, along with a Pioneer Navigation in my truck with Sound Ordnance speakers and a Bazooka Tube tucked nicely under my back seat. I shoot with a Canon T3i camera, anything from landscape shots to pictures of my son, it simply does what I need and delivers great results.
My personalization here at Crutchfield is in Hi-Fi 2.0. I enjoy helping other audio-gurus pick out the best gear for their specific musical taste. I'm also well versed in anything from a dual room home audio system to a simple upgrade to your factory sound system in your vehicle, I'm sure I can help you find the gear you need. If you're in the market for headphones, with my eclectic taste in music and knowledge and hands on experience with the many models we carry, I can certainly help select the right headphones for you. I interact with our customers via email, chat, online forums or by phone so there are several ways I can help you.
Away from Crutchfield, my wife I can usually be found perusing local antique shops, flea markets and thrift shops to fill our passion for nostalgic and collectible items. I have anything from my own personal Crane Machine, a National Cash Register to an antique Gaytone portable transistor radio (which works well). I simply love the stories that can be shared by vintage gear. My true passion however is vintage advertising signs and stamp/coin collecting.

Mike spent 2 hours and 11 minutes on the phone with me helping me dismantle the inside of a used vehicle I bought, trying to find out why my radio wasn't playing. It turned out to be that there were multiple stereo components hidden that were not allowing my radio to work properly. If it weren't for Mike's patience and support I would still be driving around with my iPod headphones in my ears. Couldn't have asked for better service!

Mike helped me with two install questions today and helped determine that a part I had received was packaged wrong. He provided an immediate solution to the install and promptly sent me a replacement part. Excellent service. Thanks.
