My work begins with a deep respect for the wood itself, its grain, its imperfections, and the story it’s waiting to tell. I don't see myself as a manufacturer, but as a steward of nature and it’s natural beauty, shaping each form with patience and intention.

What began as a curiosity for woodworking has evolved into a lifelong pursuit of craftsmanship and artistic expression. Every bowl I turn, every piece of furniture I build, is created not just to serve a purpose, but to elevate an everyday item to art, to become something lasting, meaningful, and worthy of being passed down. Most of the wood I used is sourced locally from downed trees due to weather or declining health.

I work with fine hardwoods selected for their character and complexity, using traditional and modern techniques to create objects that reflect both form and the internal beauty of wood. Though my pieces speak with quiet confidence, I remain grounded in the belief that the work should speak, and not the maker.

This is my craft. It’s rooted in humility, shaped by hands, and offered with care to those who value timeless design and thoughtful creation.
