Previously, Mike helped lead two venture-backed startups — one backed by Y Combinator and one by Rocket Internet — including a company that reached a $13 billion IPO. He has led teams from 2 to over 1,000 employees, specializing in turnarounds, leadership transitions, and the deployment of innovative operational strategies to drive non-linear growth.

Sensie was named one of "America's Top Healthcare Technologies" by the American Psychiatric Association. One of MIT's leading researchers described Sensie as "potentially the biggest breakthrough in psychology since Sigmund Freud."
