Christopher grew up in western Massachusetts and moved to the California
Bay Area in the early 1990′s. He has worked in a number of fields, from
positions as an aircraft electrician in the Navy and flight instrument
mechanic for a commercial airline to jobs in technical editing and
translation while living in Japan. Prior to enrolling in the fine
woodworking program, his interests in woodworking involved a range of
small-scale projects using primarily hand tools as well as classical
guitar building. His goals while enrolled in the fine woodworking
program are to learn and refine the specialized skills required for
making fine furniture and begin developing a personal sensibility and
style as a foundation for future work as a mature furniture maker.
