What is your professional background?
I have been in the wood industry my whole life. From logging trees, working in a sawmill, and building cabinets.
What project are you the proudest of?
The project we are most proud of was a log cabin remodel in Jackson Hole about five years ago. The job was challenging because we had multiple kerf lines from floor to ceiling that ran through the kitchen around to the entryway. Within the kitchen, there were three areas that had very large doors that hid cabinets behind them. The challenging part of the job that made us the proudest was being able to line up that kerf line.
What makes the difference between good construction and great construction in cabinetry?
The attention to detail. The details that we catch in design and manufacturing before the client ever sees them is what makes great cabinetry.
