I was born in England in 1953 and grew up in Charlottesville, Va. I started building as a young boy and had my first formal woodworking lessons at nine. My high school years were filled with making sculpture and furniture. I went to The School for American Crafts in Rochester NY and graduated with a BFA in 1975. I was there at a particularly wonderful time when there were many different teachers. I studied with Bill Keyser, Jere Osgood, Jim Krenov, Jon Brooks, Ian Kirby, and Doug Sigler, with guest appearances from Tage Frid and John Makepeace.

Again, we are so pleased with the wine cellar cabinets! They have exceeded my wildest expectations for superb craftsmanship - you are indeed a master at your work. The table is amazing, and I still don't have the words to express how stunning, tasteful, present the chairs are. Our house is now a home.
