Acknowledgement

I am grateful to my many teachers, collaborators and friends I met on the way to earning my Fine Art Degree from California College of The Arts: Mark Donahue for helping to acclimate me my freshman year, Furniture staff Donald Fortescue, Kathryn Lamb, Clay Jenson, The folks at the Berkely Caning Shop, Mary-Catherine, couselor Emily, Chris Loomis and family, Russel Baldon, Barbara Holmes, Amy, Nate Hedges, Nate Hall, Ghost, Adrianne Segall, Lawrence Labianca, Dylan Gold, for sharing their expertise, knowledge, and insight. Thanks friends and collaborators: Malachi, Tim, Helen, Adan R, Carla V, R.A. Morgan, Kjietel, Nate, Andrew, Tommy, Ben C, Carl, Jackson, Jinah K, Inaki, Mariana, the CCA furniture classes of ‘15, ‘16, ‘17 and ‘18, for timely advice, diverse perspectives, and help with glue ups. I owe thanks to Ronald Wornick and the Wornick family for their continued support of wood artists, and to The Bill Moggridge foundation for their patronage.

Before attending CCA, there were many others who helped me from Clackamas Community College, Lane Community College, Canby High School and the University of Oregon. I owe thanks to James Bryant-Trerise, Megan Haight, Mrs. Shippy, Mrs. Haberlach and Deena Kraft, Bryan Holler, among many others. Without these people I would be nothing. I aim to make them proud through my life as a creator. This page shows some selected work from my time earning my Fine Art Degree.
