About Mike

Mike’s reverence for all things wood was nurtured at an early age by his grandfather, a hobbyist woodworker and carpenter. Throughout high school, college and beyond, Mike explored wood as a building material through woodworking, studying Wood Products at The Pennsylvania State University, timber framing, carpentry and designing timber frames.

In 2005, Mike and his future wife, Jen, moved to New England, an area with a rich tradition as one of the centers of studio furniture making. Mike had the good fortune to interact with one celebrated maker, which was a catalyst for the type of finely detailed work he currently produces.

In 2011, Mike and Jen moved to Pittsburgh, PA, where they lived until September 2022.

They now live in beautiful Orford, New Hampshire with Ted the Newfoundland.
