In the past five years, I trained under master craftsmen and absorbed more than technique. I put my biology and research background to use, learning how to build furniture that is timeless, balanced, and enduring, and what to avoid in pursuit of quality.

With clear standards for how my work should be designed and built, I wanted to create furniture I could fully stand behind. With the support of family and friends, and a deep respect for process, I founded Woodford Woodworking Co.

Each chapter—craftsmanship, science, and storytelling—shapes the intentional, enduring furniture I craft today. No shortcuts. No compromises.
