Although I grew up in Texas and went to college on the East Coast at Middlebury College, I've lived and worked in Alaska for more than twenty-five years. Ian Moore and I built our timberframe home together from wood we cut, milled, and shaped ourselves. Each step of the way, I learned the skills and developed the patience which have been the foundation of my artistry, from woodworking to word-working. Every day my family and I roam the mountains by our hilltop home, looking for adventure and inspiration.
