Owner - A Walla Walla native, Mike began his journey into the world of business after attending Oregon State University, majoring in Marketing. A five year stint with Standard Oil in San Francisco led him back to Walla Walla, where Mike's natural ability to "play well with others" landed him a job with Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance. A successful career in the insurance business provided the foothold Mike needed to help start Dunham Cellars with Joanne and Eric. Mike officially retired from NML in the Spring of 2001 to concentrate solely on the winery. Mike is involved in sales and marketing nationally. mike@dunhamcellars.com
