What we build

Everything starts with wood.

I'm a woodworker first. Whether it's a kitchen, a set of built-ins, or a full renovation, the same care runs through all of it.

01

Kitchen Remodeling

The most-used room in your home deserves the most careful work.

I design and build custom kitchens from the ground up — cabinetry, islands, storage, and all the finish details. My specialty in exotic hardwoods means I can work in species most contractors won't touch: figured walnut, quartersawn white oak, wenge, teak, and more. Every kitchen I build is a one-of-one.

  • Custom cabinetry in any species
  • Island and peninsula design
  • Integrated storage systems
  • Hardware sourced from American and European makers
  • Full demo through final install

Custom Cabinetry

Built to the inch. Finished to the grain.

I build cabinetry for every room — kitchens, bathrooms, mudrooms, home offices, wherever you need it. Because I work directly with exotic and domestic hardwoods, I can match grain across runs, book-match panels, and get results that factory cabinetry just can't. If you have a species in mind, I can source it.

  • Exotic hardwoods: walnut, wenge, teak, zebrawood, and more
  • Domestic species: white oak, cherry, maple, hickory
  • Book-matched and grain-matched panels
  • Face-frame and frameless construction
  • Custom hardware and soft-close mechanisms

Built-Ins & Millwork

Spaces that feel like they were always meant to be there.

Built-ins are where my woodworking background shows most clearly. I design and build floor-to-ceiling bookcases, window seats, entertainment walls, mudroom systems, and architectural millwork that fits your home's existing character. No flat-pack. No shortcuts.

  • Floor-to-ceiling bookcases and libraries
  • Entertainment and media walls
  • Window seats and banquettes
  • Mudroom and entryway systems
  • Architectural millwork and wainscoting

Full Renovations

When the whole home needs to change, I see it through.

For projects that go beyond a single room, I manage the full scope — from demo and structural work through finish carpentry and final detail. I coordinate trades, stay on as your one point of contact, and make sure the quality carries through every phase. I don't hand off the craft at the end.

  • Full-scope project management
  • Demo through finish carpentry
  • Trade coordination
  • One point of contact throughout
  • Same craft standard across every phase

How it works

A straightforward process, no surprises.

01

Consultation

We start with a conversation about your home, what you're picturing, and your timeline. No obligation, no sales pitch.

02

Design & Proposal

I put together a detailed scope, material selections, and a fixed-price proposal. You know exactly what you're getting before anything starts.

03

Build

I build in my shop and install on-site. The same hands that designed your project are the ones that build it.

04

Handover

We walk through every detail together. I don't consider a project done until you do.

Have a project in mind?

I'd love to hear about it. Reach out early — I take on a limited number of projects each year.
