Michael Davis

Owner & Chief Brand Officer

Adopted at a young age, I grew up with the influence of my father, an up-and-coming entrepreneur in the construction business, whose sudden passing from heart failure left my family reeling. My mother, thrust into single parenthood, did everything she could to support us, embodying resilience and sacrifice. As I transitioned into college athletics, my mother was diagnosed with ALS and, heartbreakingly, passed away shortly after my graduation. My life took many challenging turns as entered my early twenties as I battled depression, anxiety, substance abuse. Yet, in the depths of these struggles, I found a turning point through Elevant. Meeting Rob Sulava, the founder, I was inspired by the brand’s #RiseandGo motto and its powerful message of resilience and self-belief. When Rob’s journey led him in a new direction, we agreed the #RiseandGo spirit needed to live on. As the Owner and Chief Brand Officer of Elevant, I am dedicated to spreading the #RiseandGo message worldwide. My mission is to encourage others to discover their strength, share their stories, and inspire resilience in others. To everyone who connects with Elevant, I say: We want to know what makes you rise and go!
