Throughout my school-aged years, I worked beside my father, Lynn Ehrgott, learning woodworking skills in his garage. After graduating from highschool, I applied to The Wendell Castle School and studied fine woodworking under "the father of the art furniture movement" Wendell Castle. Upon completion of my training, I accepted a position in the woodshop at Rhode Island School of Design. During the next ten years I worked collaboratively with many
well-noted furniture artists creating pieces for private individuals and museums out of a studio in New Bedford, MA. After working at a feverish pace for over a decade, I returned home to Pennsylvania, changing my direction to remodeling contractor and cabinet maker.
Another decade later, I relocated across the country to Texas for yet another adventure. In Texas, I utilized my fine woodworking skills building facades and consoles for pipe organs in churches. Now another decade later, I find myself taking on yet another new and exciting endeavor as I open Flip Studio in Las Cruces, NM.

My Background
From a very young age I found passion in working with wood.
My professional life has provided with a wide variety of circumstances in which to utilize my wood working talents. I have experience working with furniture artists and designers and as a member of a team. As an artisan, I do enjoy working independently at my own pace and I am afforded so in my current space here at Flip Studio.

A true product of the Wendell Castle influence, I enjoy shaping and laminating. My professional work over the years has taken many forms but my personal best is evident as organic shapes in my work. Over the years I have developed my own organic style and this can be seen across my creative works. Wendell's influence is present in my work and I am grateful to have studied and known such a great and inspiring artist.
