About Brad

I enjoyed the benefits of apprenticing to several skilled master carpenters
through college but left the trades to direct a counseling program for teenage
fathers. But the pull to work with my hands was too great and I left that field
to occupy my time with the creative energies required of a builder
of beautiful spaces.

When I'm not doting over my wife and my chickens I try to spend as much
time as I can on some beautiful river somewhere trying vainly to coax a trout
to my fly.

I hate the grand simplificateurs,
and I love the sense of quality, of
inimitable craftsmanship and
uniqueness.

~ Herman Hesse
