Creating custom cabinetry takes more than knowing how to build something. It requires an understanding of the wood, attention to detail, and, most importantly, caring enough to do the work right. I love the craftsmanship behind woodworking, hence my tagline, “A Craftsman, not a Contractor.”

So, when a previous client reached out to have some custom cabinetry for her, I was excited. I used historic walnut I had saved for a special project and crafted an heirloom piece of furniture that she can hand down for generations.
