I am a graphic designer by profession. I got my BA in fine arts from California State University Northridge with additional education at The Art Center in Pasadena, CA.

I also enjoy the "design and engineering" aspect of woodworking. I love indoor plants, tropical fish and aquariums so I created a pedestal stand that can integrate them together. A few years ago I started working with .75 x 1.5 strips of Poplar wood (not very sexy). I wanted to make something unique out of this ordinary material. After a whole summer of multiple design prototypes, I settled on my current design "motif". This design has a strong architectural look with a contemporary Asian flair. I carry this motif throughout my growing line.

I believe everyone has an empty space/corner in their home or office. My "Tranquility Stands" are a perfect vehicle to bring it to LIFE with a mix of "living things". As an artist I am always gratified when someone shares my vision. I also love to customize these stands.
