About Michael Mortensen

Have you ever considered the incredible feat of the moon landing? As a lifelong space enthusiast, this remarkable achievement has captivated me and fueled my passion for program management. Program management taps into my natural curiosities to want to understand each program\'s purpose, strategize project planning, optimize processes, effective change management and raise the bar on operational excellence. At the end of the day, my job is to foster collaborative environments where teams can work together to achieve great things! I tackle obstacles head-on, constantly seeking innovative solutions and thinking beyond conventional boundaries. This is the type of work that keeps me excited about the next thing!When I’m not admiring the latest deep space JWST telescope images or managing cross-functional initiatives, you may find me at the local Dunkin’ or biking through Central Park.
