Who exactly am I?

If you’d told 15-year-old me I’d be doing this, I would’ve laughed.

I didn’t grow up with a passion for making things. Not even close. It all started when I tried building a new staff weapon for martial arts. That one project lit the spark. On a whim, I ordered my first mini-lathe years ago and I had no clue how to use it. No training, no background, just trial, error, and a lot of close calls.

From there, I fell straight down the rabbit hole. One project led to another, and I found myself diving into woodworking, metalworking, jewelry and even knife making. I’ve been chasing curiosity ever since.

What’s next? Who knows, but if the past is any clue, it’ll be hands-on, probably a little chaotic, and definitely worth the ride.
