I left a career I could have stayed in for the rest of my life. A good salary, a clear path forward, the kind of work most people would tell you not to walk away from. I left it because I believed there was something worth making, and that no one else was going to make it.

I am someone who has spent his life paying attention to design. To the small details that elevate a home, and the smaller details most people overlook. I wanted to offer hardware forged in small batches, made for design-conscious homes that recognize the difference. I watched the rest of the market get cheaper, hollower, more disposable every year, and I could not understand why no one was fixing it.

This is an honest business. Built on craft, on patience, and on the belief that what we make should outlast us.

Thank you for being here.
