My life has led me IN many directions and I feel that they have all contributed to the diversity and quality of my work --- From drafting school to new construction to crafting furniture to stage props to fine art woodworking.

My life has led me TO some of the most interesting and beautiful places in the country and I have incorporated those experiences into my work as well.

I have made Fayetteville, WV my home because of a multitude of creative friends, the quality of life and the natural settings that have come to inspire my work.

Here are some key things that guide me in life:

* Sharing respect and learning from unique people.
* Unfolding the possibilities in a piece of wood.
* Opening people's minds and imaginations to designs.
* Exceeding people's expectations, including my own.
