Hog Island has been a little quieter since the pandemic, and I’ve decided to shift gears a bit.

I’m now working at both the College for Creative Studies and Lawrence Technological University. I meet with students across a variety of majors to teach them shop skills and help them build their designs.

Meanwhile, I’ll continue making furniture and other objects. I’m still taking commissions, and I might even make things just for myself!

Keep an eye on the feeds to see what’s new. Thanks for your support!
