FORGEEverything
I Make
Will Outlive Me.
Technique breakdowns. Commission work. Forge logs from a one-person shop where the hammer never fully cools.
“I don't polish out the hammer marks.”
The mark is the proof.
“Fire is my first collaborator.”
Steel decides its own character.
“Every commission starts with a conversation about what survives.”
Function without apology.
“I work alone. The anvil keeps time.”
No shortcuts in the strike.

One person. One forge.
No shortcuts.
I started forging in a rented garage with a borrowed hammer and a coal forge I built from a brake drum and salvaged pipe. Fourteen years later the shop is mine, but the approach hasn't changed: every piece is made by hand, every mark is intentional, and nothing leaves until it's right.
I work in steel, copper, and bronze. I take commissions for architectural hardware, interior sculpture, and functional art. I also write about process — because the knowledge that kept me from ruining expensive metal should be freely available to anyone willing to stand in front of a hot fire.
