Ben is the driving force behind Myrtle Works.
He likes rising to the challenge of creating pieces that meet the needs of his clients while still being visually compelling.
Born and raised in western MA, Ben now resides in Portland, Oregon. Growing up he watched his father and grandfather tinker away in their basement shop. Both would be working on projects that would ultimately be used in the main parts of the house.
In 2020, with an excess of time, Ben started tapping into his generational skillset and began making household items he needed and never stopped.
Ben specializes in crafting utilitarian pieces, from a cutting board to a rocking chair, all items are made custom with your desires in mind.
