Michael started his career in our NYC office where he was first introduced to the world of architectural noise control and room acoustics. In 2016 he moved to the DC area to lead the architectural market and further expand BFI’s offerings. Michael leverages his years of experience in the construction industry to ensure projects are properly coordinated and the solutions are successfully implemented for all stakeholders.

In Michael’s free time he enjoys watching Formula 1 with his daughter, sitting on the front porch enjoying a cocktail with his wife, and chasing around a little white ball for 18 holes. Of course, as an alumni of Ohio State University, Michael spends his Saturday’s in the fall watching the Buckeye’s.

Ari joined the team in 2019 after spending nearly 10-years working in acoustical consulting in NYC, and Washington, DC at leading consulting firm, Cerami & Associates. His technical background in engineering and consulting helps in making informed and practical solutions for our clients.

Ari is an active guitarist in touring bands as well as hired studio musician, a photographer, and enjoys golf in the little free time he has left.
