PROFICIENCIES

I have a great balance between industry-specific skills and soft skills, which means I have what it takes to do work that

is original yet complimentary to its application.   If you’re interested in getting to know more about me, and the skills

ABOUT ME

 Personal Profile of a Seasoned Craftsman

I have had a love for wood my entire life starting in my fathers tiny shop in the basement when I was 8.

Over 60 years later,  I am still smelling the fragrance of the wood by designing and creating excitement.  

After some years of college;  a 4 year Union Apprenticeship and a venture to the Arctic Circle to build log homes I go onward as my craft always expands..   My years as a finish carpenter and  owning a custom cabinet shop brought about a knack for custom design and innovation.  With a love for the water and my

 few seaworthy boats over the years, the woodworking evolved into a marriage of unique Custom Design Furniture to Marine carpentry on fine yachts.  Mission Accomplished ! 

   

I take pride in all that I do and in the long-term relationships I’ve fostered with clients in the process. My motto : “if it can't last 100 years don't even build it”.   Explore my portfolio, and feel free to contact me with any questions.  The key to fine woodworking is only ones intuitive imagination and a desire for excellence.
