One thing we love about our friend Michael Kreps is that despite his impressive bio and accomplishments as a principal at Groom Law Group and as senior pensions and employment counsel to the Senate HELP Committee, he is more spark than reserve – and he knows more about the industry than we are likely to forget in our lifetime.
