I have a spectrum of experience in building and woodworking. I started with formal training in high-end, gallery furniture making. I also worked for other woodshop owners making their limited production and custom designs. I later pursued an interest in carpentry and home construction which included extensive remodeling as well as from-the-ground-up building; I implemented the build from the initial site layout through the finish work and cabinetry. I also ran my own construction company and had the privilege to build some very fine homes in a range of styles, from Southwestern to Modern.
I now wish to focus on cabinetry and custom millwork for homeowners and contractors. With my background in building and fine wood millwork, I offer the understanding of the integration into the home and work flow as well as quality workmanship.
