woodworking
MY SECOND HOME AS A CHILD WAS MY FATHERS FLOOR COVERING BUSINESS. YES, I WOULD HIDE IN THE GIANT ROLLS OF RUGS. I’VE BEEN AROUND THE TRADES THROUGH MY WHOLE LIFE, AND FRANKLY FIND A LOT OF COMFORT AROUND THE PHYSICS AND HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF BUILDINGS AND PLACE. IT’S WHY I WENT TO ARCHITECTURE SCHOOL AND ITS WHY I WANT TO WORK AT THE INTERSECTION OF URBAN PLANNING, GUERRILLA URBANISM AND SOCIAL WORK. MY FATHER IS ROMANI. EVEN THOUGH OUR FAMILY HAS DEALT WITH MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF ASSIMILATION, OUR TRADES, OUR BEINGS, AND OUR DNA IS LITERALLY ENGRAINED IN WORKING WITH OUR HANDS. WOODWORKING IS NOT MY EXPERTISE, BUT I DEFINITELY LOVE DOING IT. BELOW ARE SOME OF THE PROJECTS I HAVE COMPLETED.
