Mike is a DMV native that took a early retirement from Verizon in 2012 to pursue being a full-time entrepreneur in his field of Graphic Design. This pursuit led him to the world of fashion design when he saw a niche in the brand new Cannabis industry that could be filled and used as a tool to help eradicate the negative stigma about the Cannabis plant through fashion!

While Mike is operating and marketing his Splif City apparel and novelties lifestyle brand, he also provides Graphic Design, is a proud member of Ayo University (The world's greatest movement in fashion), is a independent contractor in the gig economy, and most importantly, a loving husband to his wife Deborah.
