About Sharp Craftworks

Sharp Craftworks began as a business in 2015, but my interest in creating beautiful and functional things goes back forty years before to the days spent working with my hands in my uncle’s garage. I built baby cribs and jewelry boxes in the basement of our home in Tennessee while working as an engineer, taught myself to carve wood as a way to keep creating in the tiny apartment we moved into for grad school, and continued expanding the craft as a way of maintaining sanity as a professor. Now Sharp Craftworks serves as a creative outlet for me while giving me the opportunity to create enduring heirlooms for the people in my community.
