I’ve been framing for 16 years. I worked for a family friend at “On The Way” gallery in Tallahassee and had private framing lessons from a photographer. I started at The Frame Shoppe in governors square mall where I learned how to frame Jerseys and Diplomas. I moved to Seattle in 2014 and managed the Burien U-Frame-It for 18 months. Then I briefly did cabinetry where I learned more precise woodworking. I also worked at the framing department for Daniel Smith for over a year where I met more local artists. I got hired at Framesmith and started working there the same day in 2018 and then bought it from Tom Carroll in 2021
