Mike Senese loves music, authentic Neapolitan pizza and building stuff. As a long-haired, metal-headed sixteen-year old, he spent his first summer abroad in the Ecuadorean Andes promoting public health by constructing latrines. Since then he's survived a year of late nights in Madrid, gotten arrested for bicycling on the freeway in Italy while in search of the world's best pizza, and completely rebuilt his 1973 Land Rover to explore the Arizona desert.
Until Hollywood came calling, Mike had been living in San Francisco where he worked at Wired and ReadyMade magazines and piloted a paramedic helicopter in his spare time. An accomplished guitarist and fair-to-midlin' drummer, Mike is also the co-founder of the record label Sneakmove.com. Today, he lives in the East Bay with his wife and infant son where he is executive editor of Make: magazine.
