About Mitchell
Mitchell Walzer | General Contractor
It started with a loose plant hook. Growing up in Miami, Mitchell watched his mom solve the problem with a wooden match — stick it in the hole, and the screw grips tight. That small trick sparked something that never went away.
He went on to earn a Bachelor of Building Construction from the University of Florida, spending his summers in the field rather than behind a desk — because he’s always believed that’s where the real education happens. He later deepened that foundation studying energy-efficient building design and teaching green building as adjunct faculty at Yavapai College in Prescott, Arizona — bringing the same hands-on curiosity to the classroom that he brings to every job site.
Thirty-plus years later, that curiosity is still the engine. Mitchell believes a home is the most important space we inhabit — a place of comfort and refuge. After moving to Eugene, he put that belief into action by volunteering with Community Supported Shelters, designing and building shelters of his own, and serving at the EGAN Warming Center. Today he runs a small contracting business dedicated to making homes more comfortable, efficient, safe, and beautiful — one project at a time.
When he’s not on a job, you’ll find Mitchell dancing, cooking, kayaking, or finding new ways to contribute to the community he calls home.
