- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First, I prefer to meet with my clients, clarify project details and submit an estimate before starting any projects. Secondly, my goal is to offer quality workmanship by leveraging my industry knowledge and experience to achieve exceptional results. Much of my experience as a painter has involved fixing and restoring surfaces, as well as, purchasing and understanding paint products. It is my aim to find the best utilization of tools and products to apply finishes that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also help protect and preserve surface integrity. In this light, I not only think of myself as a painter but, a technician, a curator and an artisan as well. With all this in mind, I am committed to collaborating closely with my clients, listening attentively to preferences, and translating aspirations into visual expressions.
