Professional Experience
I started my own business, Steel Bamboo, specializing in custom metal work with an artist’s flair. For the past 4 years I’ve had success and a wonderful time; exploring and experimenting, sculpting, and completing numerous residential and commercial projects. My work has been well received; I have been recognized in the West Seattle Herald, and published in a book by a Bellevue architectural firm.
