A graduate of Middlebury college in 1985 with a B.A. in Spanish Language and Studio Art, I began making furniture professionally in 1986. The building process is very enjoyable to me and hand-tools are an important part of that. I design and build case pieces such as dressers, cabinets and tables as well as Windsor chairs which I have designed to be comfortable, pleasant to look at, enjoyable to build, and only of solid wood. I work alone or some- times with one assistant so each piece that I build gets my full attention. My work is very much influenced by Shaker furniture and traditional building techniques.
