About the Authors
Hello Portland was started by Mike Warren and Madison Hopkins. Mike is a Computer Science student at the Roux Institute and Madison just started her residency at Maine Medical Center.
Upon our recent move to Portland in June 2023, we eagerly set out to explore the city’s vibrant scene. However, we struggled to find events in Maine that truly resonated with our interests. That’s why we decided to create Hello Portland - not just for our benefit, but with the hope that it helps you discover exciting activities that you might have missed otherwise. We hope you enjoy it!
