In my teens I worked with my parents. My Mother was (and still is) a carpenter, my Father a shipwright. My passion for studies as a Classical Guitarist lead me to a strong interest in Guitar construction and an apprenticeship with a Luthier. After that phase, I worked with construction companies large and small. Commercial and residential construction. Because of my previous fine woodworking experience I was often placed as a finish carpenter. In time, I became a cabinet maker first as an employee, then opening my own shop. In 2015, spending 3 years working in a custom cabinet shop where all I did was drafting. Now working solo. My main program for CAD is AutoCAD. I also use Microvellum, and to some extent Solidworks. My hands on building background gives me a huge advantage in the drafting design world.
