I’ve always had a passion for making things. However, growing up and serving in the Army, with its transient lifestyle, made heavy cast iron tools a formidable challenge. Retiring from the Army after 31 years of service, I decided to pursue my passion before securing a ‘real’ job by attending the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship’s intensive furniture program.

Since completing the CFC’s intensive program, I’ve been honing my craft with various projects, ranging from daily-used catch-all trays and keepsake boxes to hanging whiskey cabinets. I’ve found immense joy in personalizing these handcrafted items and knowing that they will bring small moments of joy to their owners and, hopefully, become cherished family heirlooms.

Thank you for your support and for joining me on this journey.
