- My apprenticeship/employment at Aitkens Pewter with Philip Aitken's mentorship provided me the opportunity to design several pieces for their catalog which have sold continuosly up until very recently.These included hollow-ware, belt buckles and jewellery.
I was commissioned to execute two pewter repoussed chalice and paton sets which received public acknowledgment through a N.B.Craft Council publication.
Designed two bronze memorial plaques for Alberta Forestry.
Presently have a piece included in the N.B. Museum summer exhibit ,"Earth, Wind and Fire", in Saint John.
