I'm one of those strange jacks-of-all-trades, master-of-perhaps-one-or-two-of-them.  My background is best described as eclectic: I've done drywall work, repaired all kinds of musical instruments (and excelled at violin, viola, and guitar repair,) been a draftsman/designer, implemented an entire CADD department in a civil engineering/surveying firm, worked as a marina laborer, a librarian, a bookkeeper, and am now trying to figure out what it is to be a rancher.  After serving as a pastor for a decade, and a youth pastor for two decades, I have now embarked on turning one of my hobbies and passions into my vocation... I love working with wood, and I love to talk to others about woodworking! 

For relaxation, I continue to serve my community as an officer in our local volunteer fire department, and our county as a First Responder EMT.
