I have always had an interest in woodwork, since my early years watching my old man work at his sawmill shop. Since then, I always knew that the career would shape my life, and I was not surprised when my old-time friend asked to partner with me 5 years ago to start a wood workshop at our home county. I specialize in woodcutting, and like Eric likes to say, I have my way with the saw. I do not mean to blow my trumpet, but I could say that God blessed me with the best hands for the job, and I love the profession I am in.
