Meet the people making change.
Michael Flores, Founder & CEO
Michael Flores founded SCM Advisors to provide independent wireless infrastructure expertise for municipalities and property owners. With over a decade of experience in telecommunications, working on both the carrier side and property owner side, Michael recognized how technical complexity put cities and landlords at a disadvantage during negotiations, infrastructure upgrades, and compliance reviews. Under his leadership, SCM has evolved from a single rooftop project into a nationally trusted partner for commercial developers, municipalities, and religious institutions, delivering transparent service and helping clients realize the full value of their cellular lease agreements while ensuring they receive the necessary support to navigate this complex industry.
