I am a second generation painter & wallpaper hanger.  My father is a licensed California Painting 
Contractor and is the one responsible for getting me started in the trade at an early age.  My 
experience includes all aspects of wall covering installation and removal including floating the texture 
(smoothing). For a period of about 2 years I even created my own line of hand painted wall coverings 
that was marketed by the largest distributor in the world at the time Enterprise Wall coverings.  

I moved 
to the beautiful Sun Valley, Idaho area in the early 90's and became a Painting Contractor.  During my 
time in Idaho I became one of the valleys largest painting contractors with a range of work that included; 
new spec homes (800 sq ft - 3200 sq ft), large custom homes (3200 sq ft - 10,000 sq ft), as well as interior 
and exterior repaints.  I applieda variety of different finishes including; newly developed cold weather paints, 
sprayable and brushable lacquers, stain blocking primers, interior and exterior latex and oil based paints, 
conditioning of a variety of woods, interior and exterior staining, deck refinishing, texture repair, wallpaper 
installation and removal, as well as the application of UVA finishes to protect the exteriors of the log home 
that are very popular in the region. 

I moved back to California in the later part of the 90's to be closer to my family and worked with my 
father on larger custom homes in the Marin County Area.  My father has decided to focus his business 
toward applying specialty finishes such as faux marble, wood graining, rag rolls, and sponge painting.  
Because my interest lies in the application of commercial coatings rather than specialty finishes I decided to
 branch out on my own.  I have had my California Contractors license now for about 3 years and am currently accepting new work.
