When I could barely hold a hammer, I remember my fathers big hands helping me build my first little project. I remember running through his large shop, the smells of wood and solvents mixing together and engraving themselves as passages to my memories. My Fathers shop was more than a business, it was a center where people came when they needed something. I grew up watching my father making peoples eyes widen with amazement, cry with thankfulness, or gleam with gratitude at the work and care he gave to their piece.

I had the pleasure of working 15 years with my father, learning under his wing all the secrets of a craftsman. I hold them dear, along with his dedication to his customers and integrity of his work. It is my way to honor a man so dear to me.

After helping my father become the go-to furniture repair person in Saskatoon, I am continuing my journey in the business here in Windsor. I am excited to work with you and help bring your project to life with the care, attention to detail, and skills that I've honed under the careful watch of the best in the industry.

Apple Time!

I will always miss hanging out with my dad; anticipating my mother bringing coffee with a smile, working away, learning and enjoying the best parts of life.
