About Me

I've been working with wood for as long as I can remember. What started as a hobby in my garage has grown into a lifelong craft — one I've dedicated years to refining, piece by piece.

I specialize in stylistic furniture that balances form and function. Every joint is cut by hand where possible, every surface is finished with care. I believe the details are what separate furniture from craft.

I'm looking for the opportunity to bring that same level of dedication to a team that values quality craftsmanship.
