I am a retired pharmacist.  In 1985 I took up woodturning and became a founding member of both the WCWA in 1995 and SAWA in 1996 . I have been a part of the Waterfront Woodturners since it's inception in 2000 and still going strong . 

I've had the privilege to do demos both nationally and locally. My personal situation does not allow me to be more involved .  As a way of passing on my experience I demo for a group once a month in Durbanville (that was before covid). On a very regular basis I also publish on the World of Woodturners  .
