About The Author

Mike Hurta

Being the former plant manager of a 300 acre, 200,000 square foot multi-building facility with 400+ employees and with sales of over $61M per year might seem a bit daunting. Apparently not to Mike, who decided to simultaneously construct a dedicated home theater room and then renovate his kitchen and living spaces. All in a day's work I guess.
