I maintain a studio in Seattle, Washington. My work draws inspiration from the natural world, emerging through sculptural form, material exploration, and a sensitivity to movement, balance, and space. Through subtle shifts in proportion and tension, the work explores the relationship between positive and negative space, and how form can alter perception.
Whether developing pieces for exhibition, collaborating with collectors, or working with designers and architects, I focus on creating work that is considered, enduring, and deeply connected to material. My training began in the fine woodworking and design program at Seattle’s Wood Technology Center, followed by a ten-year journeyman apprenticeship that established a strong technical foundation rooted in both traditional handwork and contemporary fabrication.
My process moves between intuition and calculation. Some forms are carefully resolved, while others emerge unexpectedly through iteration and experimentation. Material selection and fabrication are guided by ongoing attention to grain, structure, joinery, and finish.
The final work is intended to exist between function and sculpture—crafted objects designed to be lived with and experienced over time.
Available for private commissions and select collaborations.
