You can say I have been doing this my entire life. My father was a custom furniture finisher and designer for over 40 years in New York City, and as far back as I can remember, he would always bring me to his shop. As a kid I would spend endless hours watching him work, and I knew that one day I'd want to follow in his footsteps. As I got older, this interest lead to me attending a trade school in Brooklyn where I studied furniture design and learned basic woodworking skills. These skills helped me land a job at a small  furniture shop in Kansas City. During my time working at the furniture shop in KC, I not only got familiar with building custom furniture that was tailored to every customer, but I also learned to run a furniture business. After a few years in Kansas City, I decided to move back to Florida ( I had lived here previously for some time after school) to open up my own furniture shop. With the help and support of my amazing wife and family I was able to make my dream a reality.
