As a child in the sixties I remember hearing guitar music that opened a whole new dimension of expression. Bands like Jefferson Airplane, Jimi Hendrix and Crosby Stills Nash and Young. This attraction has led me to work with music for much of my life. In junior high school I helped the school orchestra, and in high school I worked with a mobile sound system that traveled to small towns for schools dances. With money earned, I bought a used guitar.
As I grew older I worked as a DJ for a radio station and a college nightclub. In 1986 I went to school at the Recording Workshop in Ohio and studied sound engineering. When I moved to Minneapolis I worked as a music buyer for a record store called The Electric Fetus. I formed a band in 1988 and in the following years we released three recordings on a local label. I then began modifying guitars for myself and others, trying to make guitars play and sound better. In 1993 I studied woodworking at Minnesota State College Minneapolis Technical earning many academic awards and graduating at the top of the class. I have worked professionally as a woodworker for over nineteen years. During that time my work has appeared in numerous publications including Architectural Digest, Builder magazine, on the cover of Midwest Home magazine, The Minneapolis Tribune, in the luxury magazine Marq, Guitarmaker Magazine, and on the TV show "Home Time". In 2003 I enrolled at Minnesota State College Southeast Technical to study musical stringed instrument repair and construction. I graduated with highest honors.
