Michael Cuba 

Michael Cuba owns and operates Transom Historic Preservation Consulting. Originally from Bucks County, Pennsylvania, Michael moved to Vermont in the mid 90’s where, as a student in college, he first began to hone his woodworking skills. Michael founded Knobb Hill Joinery, with Seth Kelley, to focus on preservation and restoration timber framing while occasionally designing and cutting new structures. He has spent a great deal of time documenting historic buildings, teaching classes, and demonstrating traditional timber framing methods. After moving back to the Mid-Atlantic, in 2013, he founded Transom HPC and shifted his focus toward dendrochronology work and assessments of historic buildings.

Michael is active in the Timber Framers Guild, both as a participant of the Traditional Timber framing Research & Advisory Group and as the editor of TIMBER FRAMING, the Guild's quarterly journal. Michael serves on the boards of the National Barn Alliance and the Historic Barn and Farm Foundation of Pennsylvania.
