About me:
I'm a Master Carpenter. I work as a Set Designer/Builder and Technical Director for Racine's famous sixth street Theatre (Home of the "Snow Dance" ten minute comedy play festival). I also ply my trades freelance around the country. Besides the theatre I am a Master Historic restorationist. I have worked most recently at "Doughty Hall". A mansion in downtown Historic Greeneville, Tennessee (I'll be returning in June). Greeneville Is a Presidential city due to 17th president Andrew Johnson, who lived in Greeneville from his teen years untill death. The mainstreet prominance and the National Cemetary are heavily regulated by the Historic society, and the Historic trust. Which adds many layers to that kind of project. I crave the challenges and riggor that come with my Craft. Maybe I will be working on a mansion in your town, or designing one of your sets soon.
