Michael Jordan

Founder & CEO at Order For Me

Michael graduated with a BA in Fine Art, and let his passion for side-hustles and night-projects guide him into tech. In 2010, wanting to play a fantasy sports game for professional surfing, he decided to build Fantasurf. Over the next 6 years developing it, he also founded Surf-Stats, a surfing statistics blog and eventually predictive analytics SaaS product for predictive analytics. Both were acquired in 2016, Fantasurf as an acquisition-hire by the World Surf League in Santa Monica. He worked on their digital team for four years, building Order For Me during late nights in the final year. By August, 2019 he had completed a beta testing period, and set out to change the way dining out was done.

Constantly thinking of digital solutions for common problems, Michael spends hours reflecting on technology trends and drafting business plans for new ideas. He had dreamed of Order For Me for a long time before there was a business case to be made - why restaurants would be motivated to adopt a new operation. As soon as labor costs were expected to force the adoption of counter-service by full service restaurants, he knew he could help, and that the time was now.

Michael is an energetic champion of convenience, and tenacious in his approach to accomplish what he sets out to do. He enjoys family time, surfing, PoolsideFM, and the Micheladas at Ashland Hill.
