I am currently looking for a new full time job anywhere in the U.S. or the world in the architecture, construction or design fields. I have managed my own company for the past nine years where I have designed and built custom building products. My work has varied enormously in size and scope from bookends to managing the construction of a custom home in the UK. I am highly motivated and creative in finding solutions for the project. I have a unique knowledge of construction with steel, wood, and concrete through hands on experience and design or make nearly anything from those materials. I do enjoy traveling and am open to traveling as a part of the job.
