Here's a bit of history about me and my training.

I’ve been a furniture maker for more than 20 years, over which time I’ve been lucky enough to study and work at some of the finest workshops in the world.

As part of my five-year apprenticeship at the Edward Barnsley Workshop in Hampshire, in the U.K. I spent a year studying under James Krenov at the College of the Redwoods in California,

Following my apprenticeship, I stayed on at the Barnsley Workshop for two years as a craftsman, before working for prestigious furniture-makers Senior and Carmichael as a senior craftsman for nine years.

During my career I have been awarded two Guild Mark certificates by The Worshipful Company of Furniture Makers: one for a side table I produced while at the Edward Barnsley Workshop and another for a mechanical cylinder desk commissioned by the Marchioness of Bath.
