I have archivally repaired, rebound and fully-restored trade and special bound books for numerous clients including NC Archives & History, numerous book dealers as well as private clients as far away as New Zealand.
In addition, I have designed and created a multitude of handmade books — most incorporating calligraphy and illustration. My book training is mostly self-taught using manuals from traditionalist binders; but I studied in-person with the house binder at Duke University in the 1980s. My most favorite in-person teacher is internationally-known designer bookbinder Monique Lallier.
