Mike Petsalis

Mike serves Vircom as the Chief Operating Officer responsible for production and overall management of day-to-day operations, business growth and profitability.
He is instrumental in building and maintaining top-notch, innovative and creative teams that work to the highest standard, ensuring Vircom’s continued success. As a trained and skilled engineer with a natural aptitude for numbers, Mike uses key performance indicators and numerous metrics to ensure results are not only met but measurable.
