I grew up in the small town of Roxie, Mississippi. After relocating to larger cities and working in Corporate America, it dawned upon me that my underlying passion is to create art that brings families together. Isn't that what the world needs - more enjoyable, memorable moments? A huge part of my childhood was spent watching my Uncle Julius Mason, the town's Master Welder, work at his shop creating objects from wrought iron or steel. He forged metal pieces using tools to hammer, bend, and cut whatever the customer needed to make their life or job more functional. I developed a fondness and my curiosity peeked for learning how metals work, when heated, to be transformed into creating something spectacular.
