Hi my name is Terry Moran. I would like to take you on a journey with me which began with
my apprenticeship in the artistic craft of shoe repairing at the age of nine, studying under the tutelage of my father.
I quickly excelled beyond my father's expectations and was elevated to journeyman level at the age of seventeen. Military obligations called me to service until age
twenty one. After being discharged I was beckoned back into shoe repair by being presented the opportunity to own a shoe repair service, which was the first of three
I owned and operated over the next twenty years.

In 1990 I elected to close my last shoe repair service to begin managing other shoe repair services in the King and Kitsap
County areas for the next two years. Then Nordstrom's contracted me to relocate to Phoenix, Arizona to design and manage the refurbishing department of a store now
known as Last Chance Bargain Shoe and Apparel.

After my contract ended with Nordstrom's, I returned to Washington State and continued working or managing shoe repair
services. Over the course of the last 30 years I have witnessed the sad decline of Shoe Repair Industry in the Pacific Northwest. Not being discouraged by this,
I once again will open a shoe repair service in Canyon Park Place Shopping Plaza located in Bothell, Washington. It is my pleasure and promise to you that I will provide the
highest quality and offer a wide range of services you deserve while preserving an industry I love and respect so dearly. Quality & service begins with you. |
