Welcome to the Tailor Shop

Picture a lovely summer evening, as you stroll the streets of New York. An illuminated shop a few steps below street level catches your eye. Its light casts a beautiful glow. And in the window, you see a tailor stitching contentedly, his classical music wafting out to the sidewalk. It’s a beautiful snapshot of craft.

With this image in mind, I named my home office “the tailor shop.”

Welcome to my digital tailor shop, where I work on and display my craft.
