Hi, I’m Mikey, and welcome to the Realistic CEO website.
February 2024, during a senior year high school class project, my business teacher told me it was ‘unrealistic’ to be a CEO. It’s been my dream to be a CEO since I was 10, so I told her it is realistic!
My dad and I also co-wrote an inspirational children’s book based on my story to help people create a plan and never give up on their dreams, no matter what anyone says.
Now I have interview conversations on my podcast and in my magazine with successful Founders, CEOs, Presidents, Business Owners, Executives and Community Leaders to learn from them what it takes to be a successful CEO.

In Realistic CEO, a captivating and inspiring story unfolds as young Tony, a boy from Dreamville, sets out to prove that no dream is too big—especially becoming a CEO. After hearing his teacher say it’s not a realistic goal, Tony maps out a plan to turn his vision into reality. From starting a lemonade stand to reading books and learning from successful leaders, Tony shows that perseverance, creativity, and kindness can take you far.
