“We are excited to welcome Mike to our board,” said Sudhakar Kesavan, ICF chairman and CEO. “As we work to scale our business into new markets, Mike’s extensive qualifications and impressive track record of supporting large publicly-traded companies through mergers, acquisitions, financial planning and analysis will be invaluable to our team.
