I grew up building things and renovating houses with my dad which lead me to study mechanical engineering in college and I decided that the logical thing to do next was become a photographer! For the past decade I worked as a professional photographer and filmmaker in the outdoor space and had some incredible experiences traveling across the US and Europe shooting for Dove, VICE News, Sendero PC, Backpacker Magazine, Nemo, and more. In the spring of 2023 I started 3D printing items for a candle company I co-own and that scratched a design itch I had totally forgotten about. I dove head first into 3D printing which quickly moved into working with wood again and CNC machines. The time since has been a whirlwind that has seen me leave my job as a photographer and move into woodworking and product design full time.
