Artist Statement

The purpose of life is the expansion of happiness. That is exactly the driving force behind the designs and creativity in the furniture that I craft. And it is the very reason why people are attracted to my furniture. Although I work within the four walls of my studio, my mind enjoys traveling beyond the limitations of traditional designs. This is where the creative ideas start, capturing that first glimpse and all the possibilities for its development. Ideas are translated to sketches, full-size drawings, and models. I would like to design for you that piece of furniture that will enhance the quality of life in your environment.
