With nearly five years of experience as a luthier, I’ve had the opportunity to work for both large and small-scale guitar manufacturers, developing a deep understanding of the intricacies of guitar building, repair, and tonewood selection. My current role at Gallagher Guitar Co. has allowed me to refine my skills in crafting custom guitars while collaborating closely with a team of experienced artisans. This hands-on experience has given me invaluable insight into the craftsmanship and attention to detail required to produce high-quality instruments.

Before Gallagher, I worked for another established guitar company, where I gained significant exposure to all aspects of the guitar production process, from the initial design phase to final assembly. My expertise includes selecting and sourcing tonewood, shaping guitar bodies and necks, and overseeing the finishing process to ensure top-tier playability and sound quality. In addition to my technical skills, I have developed a strong understanding of business operations, including inventory management, vendor relations, and pricing strategies—all of which are essential when it comes to consulting for companies looking to optimize their production processes or expand into new markets..
