What's the most important thing you've learned at NBSS?
If you’re excited about something, no matter how out of reach it may seem initially, you’ll find a way to do it if you keep taking comfortable steps towards it.
What is your favorite NBSS experience?
The excitement you share and feel with your classmates and instructors when you’re learning to make pretty much anything. Summed up in the sentence, ”Isn’t that cool?!” You can really feel the excitement behind it, like a magic trick.
What's your dream job or project?
Dream job would be traveling and teaching woodworking around the world.
There’s so many different styles everywhere! And who knows what people will make once they learn how to.
What did you do before coming to NBSS?
Bartending and growing in the beautiful city of Portland, ME. The community there is a big factor in me being who I am. The smiles are different there.
What have been your favorite distractions in the past year?
Learning history of random woodworking topics, video games, driving aimlessly, and antique stores.
What’s your favorite place to be?
Wherever my friends are.
