He graduated with a B.A. Degree in Business Administration (J.F.S. & Richmond College - The American International University in London).

Mickey dreams about developing after-work activities such as skiing, swimming, and reading ... but kids take precedence. 

Mickey still thinks the ESRA MAGAZINE job was the best one he has had yet...
