My journey into carpentry began 8 years ago in America. From building simple birdhouses, I gradually worked my way up to solid wood furniture and complex laminates, even working on boat interiors in the Caribbean.

Thanks to experience from three continents, I now know exactly what a beginner needs to “figure out” at the start so that the craft excites rather than discourages them. I still vividly remember my own beginnings, which is why at MSBA I guide you through hands-on practice without unnecessary talk.

My goal is to pass on practical tricks from around the world and teach you how to think about wood in a way that allows you to leave the workshop with confidence and the joy of a job well done.
