Hello, World! Mike here. I am a Navy veteran and the proprietor of Green Shoe Garage, a pioneering workshop that combines old-school craftsmanship with modern digital tools to design, engineer, and fabricate custom objects for our clients. We tackle it all, including mechanical, electrical, electronic, and even software development.

When I am not tinkering around the workshop you can find me working out at the local Y, hanging out with fellow Mountain Maryland Makers, hiking some faraway trail, or geocaching. If you’re a fellow ham, listen for N1HNP. I am also a member of the Allegany County Arts Council. 

If you wish to collaborate on any projects, please feel free to email me at [email protected] (PGP Fingerprint: 8631 BEB1 B3EF B73D 8040 22F3 B0E6 89E8 31FF 79D7).

MAKE it a GREAT day!
