Philosophy as a Luthier

Thank you for visiting my space where craftsmanship, passion, and music come together.

I began my relationship with the craft of Lutherie back in 2005 working as an apprentice repairing Lutes and Baroque Guitars. Over the years I have been fortunate enough to be able to transition into full time classical guitar building.

As a classical guitar performer for over 30 years I believe that the playability and sound qualities of a guitar are paramount. I use a combination of time valued traditional lutherie techniques and modern advancements in tools and woodworking to create a finished product that pays homage to the great builders of the past while providing the tonal responsiveness and playability needs of the present day performer.

Explore my work, get to know my process, and feel free to reach out for any inquiries. I look forward to helping you create an instrument that brings your musical vision to life.
