What I Do

I craft, shape, and assemble unique artisnal items made mostly from both “found wood" from the wild and different types of purchased wood dependent on what the client is looking for in the finished product. This can include making furniture, wine racks, decorative items, and structural components. Using a combination of hand tools, power tools, and woodworking machinery, I cut, carve, sand, and finish wood to create both functional and decorative items. I work with a variety of materials, including hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and veneers, and can also incorporate other elements like metal or glass into my designs. I bring precision, creativity, and a deep understanding of different wood types and woodworking techniques to create something unique just for you.
