Some of his first jobs after college were building sets for the film industry. After receiving his MBA from the Wharton School and working in real estate finance, Fred was drawn back to woodworking.
“Clean lines, self-evident joinery and wood grain that become part of the design allow my pieces to speak for themselves. The work is exciting and rewarding for both me and my clients.”
