I was born in London and currently live and work in southern Vermont. I am a welder and also work in a snowboard store during the winter months. I graduated from Skidmore College as an Art Major and a lot of the work I do is jewelry and sculpture. I have a beautiful dog who's name is Stella, she's a Samoyed, I try to take her where ever I go. I enjoy living in a place where I can enjoy all four seasons, mountain biking when there is no snow and snowboarding during the winter.

Making things out of metal, riding my mountain bike and snowboard, and thinking there could be a better place to do all this.

Designing and making a great number of things (generally out of metal) jewelry, sculpture, furniture, etc.

Going fast in cars or on bikes.

Dealing well in high pressure situations (emergencies etc.)

I tend to be quiet when I first meet people, this can change pretty fast.

I'd like to think my sense of humor, but not until I start talking.

I think I make a better impression over time as people get to know me.

If I ever get married I have a song in mind for our first dance, ask me what it is.
