He learned the craft from his grandfather, a master craftsman from Sweden who taught him the techniques of old-world carpentry and fine woodworking. Over the course of his career, Craig has built everything from birdhouses and charcuterie boards to cabinets and fine furniture, and he has worked on construction crews that have built hundreds of homes across the western United States.
