  • Description

    Hello! I am a skilled residential home builder that enjoys custom wood working, and instrument repair/crafting. I enjoy connecting through music and getting outside in all its forms.

    My wife and I are hoping to see more of the world and improve our skills, giving back to the communities and people we visit. We love animals, gardening, live music, and outdoor adventure.

    We enjoy complex projects and are up for just about anything!
