For as long as he can remember, Thom’s passion has been working with wood. It wasn’t until 2019 that Thom began learning the fine art of woodturning. Creating hand-turned wood treasures allows him to connect with nature and his creative side. Each piece of wood offers the opportunity for something unique and beautiful to be reimagined and given a new purpose.

Over the years, Thom has developed a distinctive style that incorporates innovative techniques, such as live-edge, carving, and the unique use of color.

Thom’s award-winning work has been displayed at galleries and juried art festivals throughout the Southeast. He is an active member of the Etowah River Woodturners and the American Association of Woodturners.
