Mike Smith grew up in a small town on the southeast side of Indianapolis called Wanamaker. Wanamaker is home to The New Bethel Ordinary (NBO) which, in Mike's opinion, serves the best pizza. Mike graduated from Franklin Central High School where he excelled at football and was team captain. Mike's father was the owner operator of a small block masonry company and Mike spent his summers learning the business from him. Instead of going on to play college football, Mike decided to work for his dad full time and continued to pursue football in the form of coaching 5th and 6th graders. Mike spent ten years coaching the sport he loved.
Working full time with his dad gave Mike the opportunity to become proficient in blue print reading and helped instill management skills. He gained an in-depth understanding of building trades and foundation issues in general. Shortly after joining his dad, he was running his own crew.
In 2014 Mike decided to join forces with his brother-in-law, Adam Swain, and the rest of the SwainCo team.
