She recently produced the film, Flag of My Father, starring John Schneider, Gigi Erneta, and William Devane.

Her first media job was as a TV news reporter, which later opened the door to working in publicity. As a publicist, she covered the gamut of Christian entertainment, including the arenas of publishing, music, and film—Howard Publishing (now Howard Books with Simon & Schuster), Here to Him Music, and R-Squared Productions. She now owns a Christian entertainment marketing company, Premier1 Studios, which specializes in branding, publicity, and social media.

Mickey ministered with UPI while he was a player taking his first trip overseas to South Korea in 1986. Since 1986, Mickey has worked in almost forty different countries around the world. With a passion for different cultures and peoples, Mickey utilizes the international trips for discipleship with current and former players to give them a greater worldview for Jesus. UPI works with missionaries and national churches to proclaim Jesus through the game of baseball.
Mickey and his wife, Lisa, have four children: Erica, Kayla, Drew, and Marissa, all of whom have been home schooled up until high school. The Westons live in Valparaiso, IN., where Mickey is the chaplain for the Chicago White Sox.
