Acknowledgments and Notes

My switch to this career was not an easy one. Many people have been incredibly supportive and helpful. While this list is nowhere near comprehensive, it’s a start. Thank you to everyone who has helped and encouraged me.

Ted Harlan

Best teacher I’ve ever had. Thank you for being so patient with me and putting up with me. I couldn’t call myself a woodworker without you.

Mommy

Mom has always been my biggest fan, so I never know if she’s lying to me when she tells me something is beautiful. I guess I have to take her word for it. Thanks, mommy for always encouraging me and telling me I did good. Love you, mommy.

Damian

Thank you for supporting me and and adventuring with me. Thank you for always pushing me to stay focused and encouraging me to keep improving. Love you, booboo.

Thank you to Jay fish for designing my logo and carving a kickass lithograph! I will cherish it forever. Thank you to Josh Whalen for turning that image into digital ones for me.

Thank you to all of my friends for being the best people and supporters. I definitely would not be able to do the things I do without your encouragement. You know who you are. Love you tons.
