The first time I saw the Northwest I knew it would become my home. Lost Mountain is where I have lived and done my life's work for a quarter of a century.

In addition to my own mountaintop studio, I am on the faculty of the Port Townsend School of Woodworking.

My passion is to create personal, unique, three-dimensional works of art with exotic hardwoods and brightly colored veneers that are hand dyed in my studio. Each piece is carefully constructed using the natural colors, grains and textures of the sustainable yield exotic and domestic hardwoods. This beauty is then captured and framed with the dyed veneer. It is this combination, of the natural and the dyed, that sets my work apart and makes each piece unique.

Currently my products consist of salt and pepper shakers, candle holders and bottle stoppers in addition to my bracelets, earrings and treasure bowls.
