Your Instructor
Greetings my name is Grant, most call me Granch. I use he/him/his pronouns and I am a creative with big passion for teaching. I found my way to it working with troubled teens in the wilderness and there waa nothing more rewarding to me than seeing my students marvel at their own talents and creative capabilities. I primarily work with leather, and waxed canvas; but I love carving spoons as well. I look forward to meeting you and seeing what we can make.
