Michael Collado
(He/Him/Él)
Michael runs the small but mighty digital team at Solar United Neighbors (SUN) — leading the digital strategy and helping manage the website, email program, social media, and digital tools the SUN staff use.
Michael has made a decade-long career in nonprofit communications, with a focus on digital. He led the communications strategy at Youth MOVE National, a nonprofit dedicated to amplifying the voices of youth and young adults in the mental health, education, child welfare, and juvenile justice systems. During his time there, he also provided communications technical assistance to organizations and municipalities nationwide. As the Senior Manager of Digital Communications at the Parkinson’s Foundation, he helped double website visits, conversions, and email opens and clicks. Most recently, he ran communications for the volunteer network at Code for America.
Michael is driven by helping people of all backgrounds and abilities access the information they need to make informed decisions, better their lives, and impact their communities for good. He hasn’t thought up an A/B test he didn’t want to try.
In his spare time, you can catch him watching too many movies and TV shows. Send him your top three shows, and he can send back a recommendation.
