Throughout my career I have mostly focused on custom residential furniture. However, I have a wide range of experience spanning historic home restoration, museum conservation work, designing and building the Rathskeller bar at Caltech, reproducing doors for the Ryan Camp and the Death Valley Conservancy, and building large timber frame structures such as the garden Pergola at the Blacker House.

Garden pergola at the Blacker House (designed by Greene and Greene) built by Pasadena Woodworks. The structure is 80 feet long, made of Doug fir post and beam timbers, and utilizes traditional mortise and tenon joinery.

I am a second generation cabinetmaker. My father is nationally recognized as the foremost authority on Greene and Greene woodworking and is respected as one of the country’s finest woodworkers. I grew up assisting him in the historic restoration of many Greene and Greene, as well as other architecturally significant homes. I also assisted him in the recreation of many significant pieces of Greene and Greene furniture and lighting. I have also restored several pieces of original Greene and Greene pieces of furniture.

Our facility in Pasadena is equipped with vintage woodworking machinery from the early 1900s as well as vintage hand tools. In addition to our fine furniture focus, I am also a resource for specialty historic millwork.
