Mike Kennerknecht

I am the Economic Development Coordinator & Assistant Director of State Relations at the University of Rochester. Previously, I worked in public relations at Tipping Point Communications and served as Chief of Staff for New York State Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo. 

Ham radio is my hobby and N2MAK is my callsign. I am on the Board of Directors for the Rochester Amateur Radio Association (RARA) and enjoy portable operations, like Parks on the Air (POTA) and Summits on the Air (SOTA). 

I have a Masters in Public Administration (MPA) from Binghamton University and Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from SUNY Cortland. I am a lucky husband and proud father of two amazing sons.
