Favorite Jobs

• Roof framing
• Custom staircases
• Timber frame assembly

Working with both traditional methods and modern tools gives me the best of both worlds. I love tackling challenging projects that push my skills to the next level.

Physical Condition

Currently experiencing back pain from a recent heavy lift, taking extra precautions with proper lifting technique

Favorite Place

The workshop's timber frame assembly area is my favorite spot. The high ceilings and overhead crane make handling large beams easier, and the epoxy-sealed concrete floor provides the perfect flat surface for layout work. The natural light from the clerestory windows creates perfect working conditions.
