I started my woodworking career studying guitar building with Irvin Somoghyi in Berkeley, CA in the 1980's. In Santa Fe I have been a professional woodworker for over 25 years now starting in a production shop fabricating window shutters, then creating Japanese Woodwork at Ten Thousand Waves Japanese Spa and installing elaborate whole house cabinetry for large custom woodwork outfits. For the last 18 years I have been producing my own woodwork for clients out of my custom shop on Old Santa Fe Trail.
