CARVE LOUD.

Labor & Supply (L&S) originated as an outlet to create unique handmade products that inspire me and that I would use myself. My vision is to create products that journey the world you live in. Whether in the workshop, the kitchen, your creative space, or on the road; my hope is these pieces experience life with you and your loved ones developing character from the chapters of your story.

I believe in simplistic, sound craftsmanship, fueled by music, chance and error. And I believe in getting my hands dirty to get the job done.

L&S is an exploration in Art and Process. I have always been drawn to the process of creating, the challenges of problem solving, and the immediate satisfaction of success or failure. In 2022, after twenty years spent in the Action Sportswear realm leading, launching, scaling, and redefining graphic and consumer languages for leading brands and start ups, I took a leap of faith. Or perhaps it was a push? (okay, it was undeniably a push, you corporate folks are picking up what I'm saying here) I committed myself to the craft and living life carving loud. The tagline ‘CARVE LOUD’ stems from the countless years of designing artwork and crafting stories for some of the most gnarly athletes and brands in the industry, while striving to always live a similar lifestyle myself, to the fullest.

Labor and Supply is a way of life: one hundred percent of the time, we CARVE LOUD. Go big and put all of yourself into it or go home.

Thanks for stopping by.

Be well.
