Gabe Strand began woodworking in 2008 as a student in the Cabinetmaking and Fine Furniture program at Seattle Central Community College. Following a decade of working in cabinet shops and design/build firms in the PNW, he discovered folk schools, and relocated to Western North Carolina, where he worked for three years as the Wood Studio Coordinator at the John C. Campbell Folk School. There, Gabe immersed himself in greenwood chairmaking, and created curriculum that invites students to explore woodcraft through the folk school model of education. Gabe is an avid canoeist, musician, and forager, and is looking forward to learning to skijor with his 5-year old black lab, Tilly.
