About Us

---

I was born onto a Dairy Farm in Princeton, New Jersey.  During my early years, it was milk cows in the morning and night and during the day I attended The Lawrenceville School, where for five years I learned the humanities around a Harkness Table. It was around these tables, with fantastic nurturing professors, that I learned how to think, how to formulate ideas, how to debate, and how to listen. Studying engineering at Iowa State University for 4-years, I ended up in the corporate world for nearly 30-years, traveling the world and interacting with people from all classes, ethnicities, and cultures. During this time, my wife and I raised our two children and I utilized the experiences from my farming background to begin woodworking as a hobby, making all the furniture outlined here, plus more. In 2025, I had the opportunity to build a discussion table for Lancaster Country Day School and during this time decided it was time to give back and help the discussion-based learning process expand, teaching the next generation how to think, to formulate ideas, to debate, and to listen.
