It gives me great pleasure to introduce, Mike Brown (no, not our friend currently working in the Alumni Association), as our third regional Athletics fundraiser.  Mike will be joining the Athletics Advancement team this coming Monday, June 1^st, and will be covering the East region.

A Milwaukee native, Mike graduated from Notre Dame in 2001 with a degree in Management Information Systems.  While at Notre Dame, Mike was involved in numerous extracurricular activities, but none that garnered more attention than when he was named the first ever African-American mascot/Leprechaun.

Mike also has a master’s degree in management from Cardinal Stritch University and is joining us after spending 19 years with Fidelity Information Services (FIS), a Fortune 500 company.  He began at FIS as an intern for five summers, then moved on to a web developer role for six years and finally took a leap of faith to enter the world of sales.  He ends his eight-year sales career at FIS having put together a successful track record of consistently being a top sales performer and driving leading results.

Since his departure from campus, Mike has served the University as a Director on the Monogram Club Board from 2010-2013 and as a Young Alumni Director on the Alumni Association Board from 2005-2008.  He loves ALL Notre Dame Athletics, especially cheerleading, making him a perfect fit for his new role in Athletics Advancement.

Michael and his wife, Jaymie (’02, MSA ’03), currently reside in Chicago and will be relocating to the South Bend area with this new position.  Please join me in welcoming Mike back to campus.
