I am a husband and a father of two. I began my woodworking career as a trim carpenter specializing in the Frank Lloyd Wright style. In 2005 I started Natural Elements Woodworking based on the same philosophy of clean simple lines and attention to detail, making each piece look effortless. I am also a woodworking instructor for Wood Magazine, the country's largest woodworking publication. Every year in May hundreds of woodworkers from around the country travel to Des Moines, IA for Weekend With Wood, 3 days of in depth woodworking classes.
