Carpentry

Manu Carpentry

As a finish carpenter I specialize in cabinet installation, built-ins, interior doors, trim, and stairs. I began working in the trades after helping friends build a root cellar in the high desert of Colorado in 1999. Since then I’ve worked on all types of residential jobs, on large crews and small ones. In 2013 I started Manu Carpentry LLC and have since worked primarily as a subcontractor. Gratitude to the women, trans people, and gender non-conforming folks who built the path I am walking.

I have led a handful of workshops at Fireweed Community Woodshop and I enjoy teaching people of all skill levels. Click the link below to be directed to my Instagram page.
