about
I have a small shop in the Mission District, San Francisco. My projects thread the design elements from my architecture background with fabrication processes from my extensive apprenticeship with a master woodworker; I think this combination makes my approach unique. I've been known to design and build everything from shelves to Victorian stairwells to high end conference tables.
I graduated from California College of the Arts in 2007 with a bachelor of architecture degree. Throughout my education I took on as many opportunities available to engage in architecture as both a conceptual and constructed pursuit.
Working on design/build projects and interning at Studio Under Manufacture directed my interest toward executing complex design problems through the use of computer aided architectural design paired with computer numerical controlled machines.
My goal, after achieving a solid foundation in digital architecture, was to learn how to build these designs with skilled hands. I achieved this goal completing a two year apprenticing intensive under Dennis Hodges at DK Designs.
