Michael Arrieta has had exponential success in his relatively
short career. As a Cutco sales rep, he was the #1 new sales rep in
the company during his first year. He became one of the top
college-student sales reps in the history of the company before
graduating from the University of Alabama. Michael’s first
corporate experience was with Wyse, a company which was purchased
by Dell, where he was able to leverage his experience, effort, and
results to advance to Chief of Staff in a short period of time. He
got onto the radar of legendary Silicon Valley entrepreneur Keith
Krach, and eventually moved to a role as Keith’s Chief of Staff in
the early days of DocuSign. Michael was truly one of the key
players in DocuSign’s meteoric rise to market dominance, and he
advanced as far as Global VP before departing from the company
recently. He was even named to Forbes “30 Under 30” in 2016.
Now, he is founding his own holding company, Garden City, for the
purpose of buying and transforming service businesses all across
the Southeastern U.S., bringing them new culture, improved
technology, and increasing opportunities and benefits for their
working-class employees. Michael is also the co-Founder of New
Story, a non-profit whose mission is to end global
homelessness.
This guy is an absolute superstar in business and in life. Sit
