What did you do before coming to NBSS?


I was a foreman for a high-end roofing company for several years. After that I worked at a cooperage making barrels.

What's your dream job or project?

There is this Duncan Phyfe cabinet on cylinder front desk at the MET that I would love to make some day. It has large barred glass doors with velvet curtains, and a cylinder desk that stands on gilded hairy legs and paws.
