I am a woodworker and designer based in the Hudson Valley, New York. For the past eight years, I’ve worked alongside craftspeople and artists to make everything from homes and furniture to fine art and large-scale public sculptures.

My work is inspired by a fascination with cultural artifacts and techniques—from oceanic shields and Danish briar pipes to vernacular chairs, water towers, African headrests, stave churches, millinery hat blocks and more. Through this approach, I aim to craft objects, whether intimate or monumental, that feel both grounded in tradition and surprisingly new.
