things to know:
ABOUT ME
After nearly 20 years in Chicago, I've established strong roots in Logan Square where I live with my wife and our mischievous three-legged dog, Charlie.
I've got a keen interest in all things cooking and food related, from home cooking to trying new restaurants. You can find me cycling year round, checking out a local hardcore/metal show, or throwing some pottery at Penguin Foot in my free time.
​
WHAT I DO
Designing furniture and millwork is my current focus, and I enjoy it quite a bit. I like using my formal education background in user-centered design to try and come at every project looking out for the client's needs and inspiration.
Whether that be through my professional employment, or through the personal work I do.
I subscribe to form following function almost to a fault. My recent focus has been developing my own design language through my personal work.
WHAT I'VE DONE
After attaining my B.F.A. in Product Design from Columbia College, I sought work in local fabrication shops in order to explore the robust manufacturing scene in Chicago. After a brief stint bartending and managing a restaurant, I transitioned back into the fabrication world as a CNC Operator with Lagomorph design. I was then able to utilize my design degree to advance within the company , and now find myself working directly with the owner.
