A little about myself.

 

I was born and raised in Bethany, Oklahoma, a small town on the outskirts of Oklahoma City. My beautiful wife, Margaret, and I raised three strong young men -- Tyler, Chase and Justin. 

 

In that picture to the left you'll see how I ended up here, in Buffalo, New York. In June of 2014, Margaret and I were blessed with our very first grandchild, LillyAnn Elizabeth. Since LillyAnn lives with her parents in Buffalo, and since Nana could not be without her new grandbaby (ok, Papa couldn't be without her either), we put our faith in God and packed up our 30+ years in Oklahoma to start a new chapter of our lives.

 

Leaving behind a full-time carpentry gig, I now have the freedom to realize my dream -- a home-based business in my favorite hobby, wood working. 

 

A little about my experience. 

My interest in wood working dates all the way back to high school shop class. After graduation, my history is spotted with careers in carpentry.

 

• 5 years trimming houses

• 5 years constructing commercial fixtures, namely for stores such as Polo Ralph Lauren, Nautica, and Tommy Hilfiger

• 20 years making store fixtures for Hobby Lobby

 

Even though carpentry has been my source of income my whole life, I still find myself facsinated in the trade in my off-time. I'm always interested in trying new things with my traditional skillset, and love using my creative mind to bring ideas to reality.

 

Especially when it comes to problem solving and troubleshooting, my joy for the art comes to life. Do you need more organization options but are lacking in space? Do you have an outdated piece that you would like to see brought back to life? Let's get in touch. I just might have some ideas and the tools to help you out.
