Leadership
MATT HICKS Founder/Director of Operations
Matt grew up near Boston and moved to Atlanta in 2009. His woodworking hobby turned full time after linking up with Patrick in 2013. Matt lives in Grant Park with his wife Becky and their 2 kids Ryan and Breanna. When Matt isn’t scheming about small businesses, he’s probably sitting quietly in a kayak at dawn in one of our National Parks.
ROB WEEKS Owner/Director of Sales
Rob got his start in woodworking at an early age working for his father, a home builder and general contractor in Maine. After careers in Mechanical Engineering and startup Sales and Business Development, Rob moved to Atlanta and became a partner in 2021. Rob has too many side projects, and too little time, but loves working on cars, bikes, and watches. He lives in Kirkwood with his wife Abbie, and their 3 daughters, Charlie, Bell, and Ayla.
