Toby started his life in Chicago, Illinois and can not remember any other kids in his grade school that were obsessed with Beethoven.  Although Toby did not have much musical training in his youth, he was recognized for achievements in mathematics and engineering and attended the University of Illinois for Mechanical Engineering.  After college he skied.  He skied for many years in Alaska, Wyoming and Idaho before coming to Vermont expecting to find the “Rockies of the East”.  While the skiing was indeed rocky, the New England charm was unique and the maple syrup highly addictive.

While in the Burlington area Toby has worked and consulted for many area Architecture firms. He began playing violin as an adult over a decade ago and continues to enjoy the challenge of the instrument, the joy of exploring music as an adult, and the incredible craftsmanship and science of string instruments. At Vermont Violins Toby will be assisting with CAM production and programming, and whatever else will keep his hands busy.  When he’s not in the shop you might spot Toby running, sampling food truck cuisine, or tucked in a quiet place with his violin, trying to get the notes just right.
