slowly, with intention

My practice attempts to resist the pace of modern life: the need to scale rapidly, workaholism and burnout, the idea that if we don’t reach a massive audience, what we do doesn’t matter. Collections may be small and infrequent, but know that each piece is one-of-a-kind and crafted with love.

marks of the human hand

Everything I make has been physically guided by my own hands. Using a process that involves predominantly hand tools, I don't expect nor want my pieces to be confused with something mass produced. Variation and small marks of the hand are all part of this very human process.

the material speaks

I understand that wood is a natural resource that must be cut down in order for me to create. Whenever possible, I choose cut-off or foraged pieces that are unusable in industrial projects. It’s in these pieces where I find the most beauty and character—knots, holes, and signs of nature.

use as self-directed

When I first started, I jokingly described my work as “mildly useful utility objects.” I encourage you to use them as you see fit—whether it’s for utility, decoration, or a little bit of both. Treat them with care, and I hope they find a home among your daily rituals.
