AMS Member Profile
I
am a software engineer with over twenty years of developing a wide variety of
software, including five years with web based applications.
I
became interested in marquetry several years ago after seeing a display at the
Oregon state fair. I looked at the pictures and talked to one of the members manning
the booth, got contact information from him and several months later attended
a local chapter meeting. I have been a member ever since.
I
have only done one marquetry piece so far, a small rose bud, which one of our
local members uses as a training piece in his beginning lesson. However, I enjoyed
making the picture and intend to create more in the future.
When
the previous webmaster decided to step down, I volunteered to take over his position.
Mark Bendickson and I developed and maintained the AMS website until the end of
2007.
