Summary
I am a personable and dedicated individual with a passion for woodworking and a deep love for all branches of the luthiery industry. I have experience with setups, repairs, wood storage, finishing, and the craftsmanship it takes to build a high end stringed instrument by hand. I have profound respect for the skills and knowledge it takes to repair and setup an instrument and I would be honored to contribute to a workshop environment.
