EMPLOYMENT OBJECTIVE
To obtain employment which furthers my career as a professional craftsperson. I thoroughly enjoy sharing experience and knowledge with others involved in this limitlessly creative field. I know that the full extent of my abilities has yet to be realized and would love more opportunities to push those boundries. I feel that I would be an asset to any quality driven team, and given appropriate direction and resources, believe that I can accomplish any task as well as anyone else. I maintained my own 2600 square foot design and manufacture space in Seattle WA's University District for 5 years and a smaller shop north of Seattle for 2 years previous. I enjoy working in other facilities as well as on-site travel. I am very well connected in the design / build world and very much look forward to continuing this fortunate trend.
