About Me
Since 2007, I have dedicated myself to the craft and tradition of stringed instruments, focusing on both their creation and restoration. In 2011 I joined the esteemed Givens Violins workshop in Minneapolis, where I had the opportunity to work and collaborate with some of the most respected artisans and restorers in the field.
Starting in 2016, I worked with renowned violin maker David Folland, where i gained valuable experience in high-level violin making. His precision and craftsmanship helped shape the foundation of my own approach
In 2018, I became part of the Robertson and Son’s Violin Shop in Albuquerque, assuming the dual roles of maker and restorer. This experience allowed me to work closely with talented musicians and to care for and restore some truly priceless instruments.In 2023, I established my own workshop in southeastern Minnesota, primarily focusing on crafting new instruments. While I continue to undertake repairs, its on a part time basis
