19-year-old Christian Webb, a student at the Construction Career Center (CCC), is turning his passion for artistic wood-working into the business of his dreams.Â
Webb is evolving into a young part-time entrepreneur as demand for his hand-crafted, wooden charcuterie and cutting boards continue to grow.Â
His interest in wood-working began when he was 13 years old. As a rock climber, he wanted to build a rock climbing wall in his basement. Despite having no knowledge of how do it, he thought it turned out well, and that piqued his interest in carpentry. Â
“I had extra wood so I started making these random things around the
house,” he said. “I made flower holders for my mom and a few other things.â€
The CCC has allowed for him to use more advanced tools to build his projects faster to meet the growing demand. Being a student at the CCC has given Webb the opportunity to learn how to build to code, and some craftsmen secrets that will make his already-beautiful cutting boards stand out even more.
