My focus as a builder is in modern reinterpretations of historical stringed instruments. In 2017, I worked with the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art to restore the instruments of Gunnar Schonbeck as part of a playable, interactive exhibit. I built replicas of Schonbeck’s “Triangular cellos” for Bennington College, and have taught instrument-building workshops at The Cooper Union, Connecticut College, and the Bennington Museum. I also work as a guitar-family repair technician and restorator, with particular interest in 20th-century banjo-family instruments.
