A bit about me

Before carpentry I was a world traveler. I have taken my Yoga Teacher Training in India, my Surf Instructor course in Tofino, and have traveled to many countries taking in their culture and architecture, ultimately leading me to carpentry. Carpentry was a way to become more than an observer and have something to offer the world myself. I believe it will ultimately give me freedom as any skill would, by designing and building my own world with all the influences I've gathered over the years. I think my colorful background adds to any team, as my curiosity has now been channeled into my work.
