Exceptional custom framing for luxury homes. 13+ years of expertise serving discerning homeowners and builders across Northern Michigan.
I'm a third-generation builder with framing in my blood. I grew up on job sites starting at age 3, learning the craft from the ground up. That foundation has shaped everything I do.
With 13+ years of professional framing experience, I've developed a reputation for precision, quality, and reliability. In 2024, I went independent for the third time, and I'm finally hitting real momentum. Every project reflects my commitment to excellence and attention to detail.
I specialize in custom home framing, particularly in Northern Michigan's challenging lakeside market. I understand the unique demands of waterfront construction and deliver results that discerning clients can trust.
