CURRENT MISSION

Learning all I can, teaching what little I know, staying hungry for more.

ABOUT ME

I live and work in Washington, D.C. I build furniture for a 'living.' I'm a proud brother-uncle-son, perennially wandering, content yet hungry. I come from a large, wonderful family.

PHILOSOPHY

It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so.
Mark Twain
