I have been working with wood ever since I was old enough to use a knife. Growing up in the Chilcotin region of B.C. without T.V. was the perfect environment for cultivating creativity. I found myself doing a lot of carving and drawing in my spare time.  Wood was such an abundant resource it became a natural choice of material to use; I would find a stick in the yard or a piece of fire wood and begin carving. 

                 Eventually, my love for design and woodwork lead me to enroll in the Wood Products Design program at Kootenay School of the Arts in Nelson B.C. Here I began to refine my visual language and develop an effective design process. 

My intent is to design furniture and home accessories which are functional yet look beautiful on their own when they are not being used.  I hope you will enjoy my pieces as much as I enjoy creating them.
