History

My initial experience in the design industry began during my college days when I worked as a draftsman for 2 leading architectural firms in Memphis Tennessee. In June 1976 I began my experience in the millwork industry where I drew extensive shop drawings for custom millwork for an architectural millwork company in Memphis. Eventually, I was able to work in building materials sales until 1979 when I shifted to work in sales for a modular millwork products distributor.

My first solo design projects consisted of a small church in rural Shelby County TN and a small cabin in Hardeman County TN. Upon relocating to Jackson TN, design opportunities flourished as did opportunities in custom millwork.

To date, I have had the privilege of designing over 100,000 SF of custom residential and light commercial projects in West Tennessee and North Mississippi.

My experience in the millwork, building materials and truss industries gave me valuable insight and knowledge of construction techniques and practices. This has been extremely useful and helpful for my design clients.
