My journey into woodworking began almost by accident, but my connection to it has been anything but. Over two decades ago I found myself in a small workshop helping an older craftsman with simple tasks. That first experience - shaping raw wood by hand, learning the patience and precision it demands - left a lasting imprint. Although life took me into the world of large-scale building projects, where I gained deep knowledge of construction, structure, and problem-solving, the pull toward wood never left me.

After years of working on everything from small heritage homes to towering buildings in the City of London, I returned to the craft that always felt like home. In our little workshop behind the house, surrounded by fruit trees I have lovingly trained by hand, I now design and build furniture with the same quiet focus and care that first drew me in all those years ago. Every piece I make is shaped by my hands, my eye for detail, and my deep respect for natural materials. For me, working with wood is not just a skill - it’s a way of living in harmony with nature, of slowing down, noticing the grain, and creating something lasting.
