A Bit About Me

I love to build! Anytime I get the opportunity to bring a draft to life, whether a miniature set or a life-sized one, I'm on board. I am confident working with a variety of power tools; miter saw, router, jigsaw, circular saw, and looking forward to learning more! I've been doing set decorating and set construction for 5 years now and am ready to grow to the next level. I'd love to work with you!
