Mike Studholme joined mtvSolar as an intern in 2012 and then became a full-time employee in May of 2013, joining the residential install crew and working all sorts of different positions before rising to become one of the company’s top PV consultants with solar professional certifications to match. Before getting into solar, Mike managed a camp store and worked at restaurants and in retail. His diverse experience and people skills have put him in the lead on the mtvSolar sales team and help him advance the solar industry in the region.
When he’s not designing solar and energy solutions in the quad-state, Mike will be spending time with his wife Sam and their son and daughter and dogs Ollie (Mountain Shepherd) and Izzy (Border Collie Shepherd mix). They’ll be exploring the outdoors, playing sports and floating down a river somewhere. He credits mtvSolar Master Electrician Ryan Slack with introducing him to his future wife, who works for the American Heart Association – a fitting job for someone with a heart as big as Sam’s!
Mike hopes to be celebrating 30+ years with mtvSolar one day, making an impact on people’s lives, the reliability of the energy grid and the planet. He aspires to be able to look back on his life surrounded by people he loves, and feel joy and pride for all the memories they’ve made. He’d also like to someday own a house with a dock to boat and fish with the family from.
