After attending SUNY Purchase and graduating with a BFA in photography he worked for the Adirondack Mountain Club for a few seasons. He built and maintained trails all over the ADKs and the Catskills, working at remote sites with only hand tools on everything from bridges to rock staircases. A largely self-taught woodworker, Robbins settled in the Hudson Valley and began developing his own furniture line. Currently, he operates his woodshop out of a former garment factory in Philmont, NY. An avid outdoorsman, when he's not in the shop building or photographing his own work Robbins is most likely out backpacking or skiing.
