Made from saw milled white cedar from the swamps of the Lumbee River and by the hands of a Native American from the largest tribe East of the Mississippi River. Growing up in a poor community we learned how to use our hands and I gained my knowledge through watching the elders in my community build furniture for their own families. Now I am building it for my own and those around me.

My specialty is furniture refinishing but I also enjoy making custom furniture. Over the years I have been told repeatedly that I missed my calling when it came to the art of wood. I just enjoy any type of carpentry and making others dreams come true.
Dealing with the public all my life first as a salesman during college and have realized over the years that most people are not patient. Quality work is not possible without patience and making sure every detail is covered for pieces to last a lifetime. My pieces are meant to be passed down from generation to generation. This process can not be rushed.
No one is perfect and I don't expect to be, but I strive for perfection in my furniture making process. With a Masters in Special Education and a Masters in Business, I have learned that patience over powers ignorance.
