Biography
I have been turning for 35 plus years. I belong to 4 Turning Clubs in Florida and was given the privilege of a lifetime
membership in the Finger Lakes Wood Turners in Rochester, NY. In Florida I belong to Hands on Wood Turners, Beverly
Hills, Central Florida Wood Turners, Maitland, Villages Wood Turners and the Wednesday Night Turners, Leesburg.
I have attended numerous AAW Symposiums and Florida Wood Turning Symposiums. I enjoy turning smaller
things such as small bowls, boxes, pens, Christmas Ornaments and Bottle Stoppers. When ever I can I enjoy helping
others with turning techniques and questions that they have and have done Club Demos.
My wife and I have a Nationally Registered Therapy Dog (Taffy a Miniature Poodle) and Visit Hospitals, Nursing Home
and Special Needs children's Schools. Taffy is also a Court Dog in Florida. We meet with Victims and Witness before
and after they testify to provide a calming and less stressful time in Court
