I grew up at Rodd Point in Sydney.
I became interested in wood from a young age. My father worked in a furniture factory and would bring home offcuts for me to play with. I recall making primitive items as a young boy.
On leaving school I studied Land and Engineering Survey Drafting and worked for the Water Conservation and Irrigation Commission, as a Water Rights Offier, spending much time travelling the major rivers of NSW
In 1996 I moved to Grafton to manage North Coast Water Licensing Unit.
I joined the Northern Rivers Woodworkers Association shortly after and have gradually improved my knowledge of the craft since that time. I am a regular exhibitor at the Jacaranda Woodwork display, held at the South Grafton RSL Club, and have, on many occasions, successfully entered the woodwork competition held there.
I display and sell my work at the Ferry Park Gallery, Maclean and at the Coldstream Gallery, Ulmurra.
I continue to strive to improve the standard of my work.
