Who We Are

Known for taking things apart and fixing them, Mike is considered a jack-of-all-trades who loves the challenge of bringing broken gadgets back to life.

When he isn’t catching up with SureShot employees, Mike can be found on the golf course, working on his game. Not a fan of the cold, he chases the warm weather and spends his winters where there’s a mild, sunny climate. Although this means he gets to practice his swing year round, he hasn’t made it to the PGA tour just yet – but he’s hoping an invitation comes along soon!

Although he grew up in a small island village, David has big city ambition that has led him to complete several triathlons and become the maker of the world’s finest seafood chowder.

Very often, these activities include music as he appreciates a good jam session, and he sings and plays the guitar.

While his swing isn’t quite as good as that of Tiger Woods, Ian is an avid golfer who has dreams of one day making it to a professional tour.
