Hello, World! Mike here. I am the proprietor of Green Shoe Garage. We do a few things exceptionally well — the design and engineering of prototypes, embedded systems security research, and the creation of scientific and technology-oriented content for educational and marketing purposes. I also explore the interplay of technology and humanity through artistic expression over at Polymath Design Studio. When I am not working, you can find me doing some writing, geocaching, experimental cooking in the kitchen, or surfing amateur radio frequencies (N1HNP). But most importantly, I get to be a dad to an amazing young woman. I am also a member of the Allegany County Arts Council and a co-founder of Mountain Maryland Makers, a group of makers looking to collaborate, share, learn and have fun out in the beautiful mountain towns of Western Maryland.

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). Oh, and if you are getting married and need someone to officiate, I am an ordained minister with the Universal Life Church!
