Mike's Story
Quite a journey since graduating from Bok. I went straight to school (Cheyney University of Pa.) Richard Thompson and I were team mates on Cheyney's football team. I'm told Richard Thompson died of a heart attack a few years back, but I cannot confirm this.
Rich and I actually played with former Eagle safety Andre Waters. Knew him well, as he killed himself in 2006. Left Cheyney in 1984 and moved to Lumberton N.J. to take a job as a Commercial Credit Analyst at a super regional bank named First Fidelity Bank.
Through several mergers and acquisitions it is now part of the Wachovia family. From there I moved into mortgage banking and stayed there until July of 2009. ...Expand for more
I now do sales coaching and motivational speaking around the country. I have traveled the continent of Asia thoroughly and spend a lot of time in the Philippines.
In between all of this I went back to school to finish my degree
