Hi, I’m Chris, also known as the Blind Woodturner. I started out in life as a regular guy, working in auto body repair at BMW, until one day, completely out of the blue, a rare condition (Toxoplasmosis) reared its ugly head and caused me to lose my sight in a matter of weeks.

Today, I travel around the country giving public woodturning demonstrations, speaking about my experiences and sharing my story on my YouTube channel in an effort to inspire and motivate people, no matter what their circumstances, to achieve their full potential.
