Welcome to my workshop!
There's something quietly magical about transforming raw wood into an instrument that sings. From my workshop in Ojai, California, I handcraft each violin the traditional way — taking time with every curve, joint, and varnish coat until the wood finds its voice: warm, sweet, and full enough to fill a concert hall.
I work with musicians, students, and collectors who care about quality and craftsmanship. If you have questions, are looking for something special, or just want to talk instruments, my door is always open.
"An instrument of great character, combining a flexible sound with real carrying power... easy on the eye as well as being most rewarding to play."
— David Juritz, former Concertmaster, London Mozart Players
"Such a luscious, sweet tone with that huskiness I love. Choosing you to make my violin was the best decision I've made."
— Rafael Vazquez Guevara, UCSB Violin Performance Graduate (2024)
