Before becoming a NCARB-certified architect, licensed general contractor and a local leader in digital fabrication, Mike was learning the ropes from his uncles on construction sites across the Denver metro area.

As an undergraduate, he earned both a Certificate of Construction Management from CSU and a Bachelors of Environment Design from CU Boulder, before later pursuing a Masters of Architecture at CU Denver. Today, he is regularly welcomed as a featured lecturer in the architectural and design community, in addition to teaching Architectural Technologies courses at the Community College of Denver.

Blending years of hands-on site supervision experience with a passion for crafting intentional spaces, Mike’s multi-disciplinary background continues to shape the unique design, build and install capabilities of the Raw Creative studio.
