MICHAEL BELIEVES THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE HE CAN OFFER IS GIVING QUALITY TIME TO EACH CUSTOMER.
MICHAEL BEGAN WORKING WITH STAINED GLASS IN 1986 WHEN HE TOOK A BEGINNERS CLASS. HE SAYS HE WAS HOOKED FROM THE START.
AFTER A YEAR OF CLASSES AND TRIAL AND ERROR, HE STARTED WORKING ART/CRAFT SHOWS.
IN 1989 HE WAS LAID OFF FROM HIS JOB AS A WAREHOUSE FOREMAN, AT THE SAME TIME THE LOCAL STAINED GLASS SHOP WAS CLOSING DUE TO RETIREMENT.
HE DECIDED TO OPEN HIS STUDIO IN MAY 1989, THE REST AS THEY SAY, "IS HISTORY"
20 PLUS YEARS LATER HE CAN BE FOUND IN HIS STUDIO, WORKING, TEACHING, OR GIVING PERFECT CUSTOMER ATTENTION.
A SMALL FOOTNOTE FROM THE AUTHOR OF THIS ARTICLE. I AM A STUDENT OF MICHAELS, I HAVE TO SAY I BELIEVE HIS LOVE OF GLASS COMES THROUGH IN EVERY PEICE HE CREATES, EVERY STUDENT HE WORKS WITH AND EVERY CUSTOMER THAT WALKS THROUGH HIS DOOR. NOT ONLY IS HE A GREAT ARTIST, HE IS ALSO A WONDERFUL AND COMPASSIONATE PERSON. VISIT MICHAELS SHOP, YOU WILL BE DELIGHTED.
