I have had a lifelong fascination with design and craft and have developed all of the necessary skills to lead a successful custom cabinet business here on the wonderful Northern California coastline. My goal is to understand each project's unique aspirations. I want to provide cabinetry and furniture that is a true interpretation of my client's vision. I would like my creations to feel luxurious and satisfying in use, day by day.

James Krenov, the master instructor of the CR Fine Furniture program (now renamed The Krenov School), had a keen sense of design and an unparalleled sensitivity to his craft. He created furniture that was intended to surprise and delight all of the senses. His writing continues to influence a global family of woodworkers, and his instruction opened many of our eyes to the joy of working in concert with our tools and materials. He urged us to refine our senses and to work in ways that are personal and sustainable.
