From the meet the team series… here’s Darrell- During the workweek he’s busy keeping our projects on schedule and finishing them with the highest degree of skill, talent, and know-how.

He also provides mentorship to our younger carpenters.

As a master carpenter, he really measures up.
He’s also an athlete, a traveler and a bookworm. Let’s just say Darrell is very well-rounded and we’re happy to have him on the AFDB team!
