Michael Raymond Stankus

In 2011, Michael Raymond Stankus embarked on a transformative professional journey when he joined MRP as an account executive. This pivotal career move allowed him to refine his sales acumen and showcase his unwavering commitment to professionalism. His tireless dedication and exceptional work ethic did not go unnoticed, earning him the esteemed title of ‘Account Executive of the Month’ in June and October 2015. Subsequently, he assumed a pivotal role in Sales Enablement, where his expertise proved instrumental in successfully managing Cisco’s expansive partner lead program, which spanned a network of over 300 partners nationwide.

In 2022, he witnessed his transition to eLocal’s innovative Sales Development team. Despite the shift in his professional landscape, his steadfast commitment to excellence remained undiminished, and his professionalism continued to shine as a beacon of reliability and expertise.

Beyond the rigors of Michael Raymond’s professional life, he maintains a vibrant and fulfilling personal life enriched by various eclectic hobbies. These pastimes include the thrill of motorcycling, the satisfaction of guitar repair craftsmanship, the joy of kite flying, the freedom of bicycling through scenic routes, and the immersive world of video games.

Music occupies a unique and enduring place in his heart. His foray into live music commenced during his college years with his band, The Healthy Doses, and evolved further through his involvement with bands like Natural Selection and Jah People. His musical journey has taken him to diverse stages, from the vibrant cityscape of Philadelphia to the scenic shores of New Jersey and even the bustling metropolises of Washington, D.C., and New York City. He treasures the profound connection he forges with his audience when he takes the stage as a bass player, an art that continues to captivate him.

He has masterfully balanced his passion for hobbies with his unwavering commitment to family. Fate brought him together with his future wife, Rachel, at a memorable Flaming Lips concert in Philadelphia, and their bond has remained unbreakable ever since. By 2015, they had planted their roots in Collingswood, NJ, with their daughter Cecilia, driven by their shared commitment to providing enhanced educational opportunities for their family. Their familial joy expanded once more in 2020 with the arrival of their son, Sammy, infusing their lives with even more love and laughter.

Michael Stankus’s commendable spirit of community service and altruism has been integral to his life since his formative years in organizations such as Boy Scouts and Civil Air Patrol. His deep-rooted commitment to giving back to the community became evident in his participation in MLK Day in 2019. He wholeheartedly joined his company’s community service day, contributing to the cleanup efforts in Philadelphia’s Kensington area. Once again, he demonstrated the professionalism and dedication that define his character, leaving a lasting positive impact on the communities he holds dear.
