About Coatings College - Your Path to Success

 Growing up in Central Georgia, I recognized at a young age that my career path was that of an artisan. Possessing a tireless work ethic and an unwavering pursuit of knowledge has enabled me to become a versatile and top-tier craftsman. As a featured artist in various publications, including Void Magazine's "makers" edition #98, featured artist at The 41st Annual Cultural Arts Awards Gala (Jacksonville, FL), member of the elite concrete based craftsmen known as "Concreten's" and as the lead designer and fabricator at Xtreme Exotics Wildlife Foundation in St. Augustine, Florida, I have had the opportunity to showcase my skills in a wide array of venues. My  experience has taught me the importance of collaboration, and I have been fortunate to have apprentices with diverse skill sets who have played pivotal roles in my career. My abilities are a result of hands-on lessons learned from experienced artisans and innovative artists alike. With expertise in blacksmithing, plumbing, steel fabrication, decorative concrete, form/mold fabrication, vertical concrete carving, high-detail specialty finishes, niche design, and consulting, as well as being a Master Carpenter, my creative capabilities are limited only by a client's needs, cohesive design and budget. My ongoing pursuit of excellence has led me to join the Coatings Central family. With over a decade of experience in mentoring apprentices, I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and expertise. I look forward to collaborating with individuals or teams, whether professionals or novices, to enhance their skills and provide access to the pinnacle of industry/specialty materials that will bring their ideas to life.
