Mike Martin
Director of Consulting & Contract Management
Banking is a very relationship-based industry, and I make sure I am taking care of my clients. Doing the right thing in every project goes a long way and will be remembered/discussed for years to come.
OVERVIEW
Mike joined Eide Bailly in the fall of 2019 and brings many years of financial industry experience with him.
