I'm a strong believer in the power of beauty to elevate any experience, especially when it comes to dining out. Every detail of the dining experience influences guests perceptions of what a restaurant is trying to embody, and if done well, can leave them feeling inspired. 
Fourteen years experience in the restaurant industry and a lifetime of crafting served as a jumping off point for the creation of Tabella. I get great satisfaction from creating products that feel sturdy in the hand, look good on the table, and function intuitively. 
I am a locavore and believe in supporting my neighbors and community. Working with small local suppliers for my creations, buying sustainably harvested wood and recycling bi-products whenever possible has allowed me to have a very small carbon footprint.
