I am a mechanic by trade and owned Broken Axle, an automotive shop, in Calgary from 2010-2020. Following the closure of the Calgary location, Broken Axle reopened in Okotoks. I refocused the shop exclusively on part sales so I would be able to focus more attention on my other passion, art.
I have been creating metal art for nearly 20 years, making pieces as a hobby. I purchased a CNC plasma table in 2017 and have created many pieces for family and friends, as well as some that were donated. Being part of the community has always been important to me.
I finally decided that I wanted to make the leap and pursue my passion professionally, opening Broken Axle Metal Art. I create a variety of pieces from pre-made to custom projects. I particularly enjoy working with customers to create the vision they have in mind. I love seeing people’s faces when they see the final product.
I will be continually updating this site and adding more photos. If you are interested in a specific piece or have an idea of your own, please contact me.
