About Me

My name is Mark “Mugs” Smith, and I’ve spent more than 15 years working in solar energy and energy storage systems across the United States and internationally.

I also spent 12 years living completely off-grid in a yurt, building my own solar system and learning firsthand what it really takes to live independently.

OTG Tiny is where I share practical knowledge about land, shelter, and off-grid systems — the tools and decisions that make independent living possible.

The goal is simple:

To owe no one, except to love them
