About me

Gender Male
Occupation Ex Jeweler, contractor
Location Seattle, WA
Introduction Most of my professional life was spent designing and making higher end custom jewelry, the last twenty years self employed in a one man design studio in the mid-west. I moved to Seattle in 2002 and after a year of driving around this beautiful part of the country and taking as many photos as possible, I started up a design build business doing kitchen and bath remodels, small additions and seismic retrofits for these wonderful old Seattle houses.
Interests Traveling, scuba diving and carrying a camera everywhere. Pretty good not bad weekend chef, like cooking for friends and crowds.
Favorite Music Mainly new age, classical, some rock definitely not rap. A deep seated love of Gregorian chant, you'd need to hear the story about that. I've had the pleasure of experiencing a lot of live acts at the Blue Note in Columbia MO where I lived for some twenty years. All four Neville Brothers for instance and BB King at the University of Missouri. The Rolling Stones were there, who could miss that?
Favorite Books I'm a voracious reader, especially when I can hide out at a 100 year old farmhouse on Lopez Island where there is no television.
