As a Massachusetts state certified Home Improvement Contractor, I'm committed to helping the average home owner manage all the upkeep necessary to keep a house in working order, from a full room remodel to a sticky door or two. Chapter 1
After playing in my grandfather's wood shop as a kid and learning from my step father, who was a carpenter, I began my carpentry career in 1994 at the age
of 19. The next seven years were spent building custom homes, with a personal passion for interior finish carpentry, in FL and NC. Chapter 2
After a decade on the job site, I took off my tool belt and started the cabinet making leg of my career. I spent the next 5 years building high end wooden and commercial laminate cabinets in the Charlotte, NC area, as well as all aspects of finish carpentry, some custom furniture and even a few custom RV interiors. Meanwhile, I was developing my own workspace at home to develop the skills I would need for a future chapter of my carpentry career. Chapter3
In 2010 I joined the film industry as a "Propmaker." Since then I have built scenery, sets, and props for over 50 film productions. Starting in film as a journeyman carpenter, I have been a part of so many unique building projects in an industry that thrives on artistic development. The last 7 years has been spent building doors, windows, copying all sorts of things for camera and of course cabinets in "The Mill," custom film shop. Present Day
In 2021 my family and I relocated to central MA, to a property with a 1500 sq/ft outbuilding, a good sized shop for me. After a couple years of setting up electricity and organizing the work space, my shop is fully functional. I am still a prop maker and will retire as one, but in my personal time I'm working to build a reputation that will lead to success in my next chapter as a quality furniture maker of heirloom pieces that will remain in families for generations.
