Meet the Team

At Ingrained Wood Studios, our work is shaped by the people behind it. Our team brings together more than three decades of collective experience in fine woodworking, cabinetry, millwork, and custom fabrication. Each person contributes a unique set of skills and perspectives, but we’re all driven by the same shared goal: to create the best product possible.

Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do. Within our studios, ideas move freely between craftsmen, designers, and project leads, ensuring every detail is thoughtfully considered. That same spirit extends to our partnerships with architects, interior designers, and builders—professionals who rely on us not just for quality workmanship, but for clear communication, problem-solving, and a commitment to excellence.

Our facilities and tools may set the stage, but it’s our people—their talent, curiosity, and dedication—that define who we are. Together, we bring projects to life with precision, purpose, and pride.
