With my background as both a fine craftsman and a designer for demanding, high-end clients, I bring a strong hands-on knowledge of materials, luxury aesthetics, and manufacturing details and proportions. As part of a small design firm, I covered a broad scope of responsibility, typically overseeing five to ten simultaneous projects, and managing relationships with multiple partners including vendors, architects, landscape architects, and contractors. Those relationships with clients and partners have also given me strong skills in working with diverse and challenging personalities. What drives me through all the work is my passion for designing well-made objects and seeing them come to life.
