I'M MIKE
I'm Head of Commercial Projects at Slate Auto. I joined in August 2022 as one of the first ten employees and the second business hire. Since then, I've led projects in commercial partnerships, product finance, strategic finance, analytics, market research, and more - anything the company needs to push forward our mission. Now, with 500+ employees, we're well on our way to building a radically simple, affordable, and personalizable electric vehicle.
I am energized by working on projects that build a more sustainable and dynamic society. Over several years, I've built a portfolio of work at the intersection of climate tech, startups, and investing, including co-founding Gaia AI, a startup using robotics and AI to make forests a viable solution for carbon sequestration. You can read about my research on startups and find the articles and interviews I've done with founders here. Check out my About page to learn more about my work and what drives me!
