our story

As the co-founders of LA Woodshop, we’re all independent business owners who bonded over our shared involvement in the Los Angeles woodworking community.

With over 50 years of combined knowledge in the fields of architectural woodworking, furniture making, business, and teaching, we formed LA Woodshop with the goal of nurturing a community of like-minded makers and making entry to the world of woodworking feel less daunting for newcomers.
